Just to be clear, are you saying that if I shift-click 2 ships (or fleets) and move/attack, they will move as a fleet for the first turn even if they have different speeds? i.e. if 1 ship has a movement of 10 while the other has a movement of 7, will the first ship "slow down" and move with the second, and only move 7 for that turn? I thought that shift-clicking was only a faster means of giving out the same order to multiple ships.

Slick.

Shift-clicking makes a virtual super-fleet for one turn. They'll slow down to let the slower guys keep up and everything.
