D-tech (a modest suggestion=-)

You should be able to limit components to a class of ship, transports must have cargo holds for example. You can certainly force a minimum hull size by making the component bigger, maybe each Version gets both more powerful and physically larger.
Some of these ideas sound coool, hope they can be implemented.
