Of course, as I had said, I was referring to the non-Gold Version of the game. In that Version, the player order dictates the combat execution order.

If I have it right, every ship in a fleet that has a Neural Net gets to use the experience stats of the best, most-experienced ship in that same fleet. That is, the experienced ship that is lending its stats to others does NOT need the Neural Net.

The reason for the original question was to explore the possibility that the 20 kt difference between Talisman and the NN might be aboe to be used otherwise. Also, Talisman ships might be preferred ships to capture so that a non-Religious race could use NN to gain that perfedt hit chance.
