[Q]

Modding ship sizes should be quite easy and as far as I read you can use standard ship pictures and vary their size for new ship classes.
My concern is the ship design: if it works like in starfury, which is what the screenshots indicate, then it could be very time consuming to create the many designs you need in a typical space empires game. And I am not convinced that the directional damage is worth this effort, especially if you cannot control the exact ship movements in strategic combat.

You can set formations though, can't you? Thus if you put your command ship at the back you could be vulnerable to flanking attacks, so he might want some rear armor...

That's a fair statement.
