We won't even have to make a change to the files. The call for the always hit ability will simply be ignored since there will be no component that can satisfy it.
Um. If it's a simple thing like making sure the AI uses both regular combat sensors AND the Talisman ... wouldn't it be possible to simply include updated AI for the stock races, with the balance mod ... ?

That'd work WRT the QR, as well.
