Help me understand

Battling in GAC and last fight is head-to-head Negotiator battle. My GK has 90 higher speed. My JKA has 26 higher, the marauder crew each are 40-96 higher speed. Relics are all the same - GK 8, JKA 7, BB 5. Yet all four ships go first and wipe the floor with me. What mechanic am I missing?

Did I get screwed by a coin flip? Same starting three on both sides - Marauder, BTL, Anakin

The speed of characters isn't relevant for ship battles. However, relic levels (or gear level) and mod dots (colour doesn't) do affect speed.
