I should note that static NN is actually a good idea. If your NPCs
keep getting better (and therefore stronger) in combat, your can say
goodbye to any long-term game balance.

Aparently the current real-world, high-end AI systems use rules (or
something more appropriate) for preprocessing, neural network for
decision making, and again rules for postprocessing (to ensure
hard-coded requirements).
I'm not sure how you'd go about feeding state machine output into a
NN. Note that using 1 input line per state into a single NN is
actually equivalent to having a different NN for each state. That's
because the 1st layer of the NN can act like a set of AND gates and
effectively split the network - but a single net would be able to
exploit cross-state analogies, if any.
