There are only
3, (maybe 6), weapons / components
1 Engine type
No Bridge required

Heck, why stop there? Eliminate all the components and go with one "Component" that incorporates all the various abilities in them. Have a generic research field that gives you "tech levels" instead of specific technoligies so you can build more advanced ships. Then it's all about raw economics and getting more ships then the other guy, or the strategy of getting your ships where the other guy's aren't.
