Focusing more about Adament mod, maybe some ideas (that you maybe either already have, or have better...):

It is possible to make each race different.
For example, for the magic race, you could imagine that they do not have AI, so no master computer available. On the other side, all the crew is magic user, so all component consirered as filled with people would generate/regenerate shield. As well, the bridge, crew quarter, living querater, and several type of weapons may have boarding defense abilities, very high as all are training magicians, and all generate shields.

On the other side for Organic, all component would be regenerable, and maybe have boarding party ability. You could sacrifice engines, weapons to board, as every part is living, it can be use for attack. Not sure this is possible though.
Maybe the organic would have absolutly no shield, they may have non-leaking armor?

Just some ideas, if it helps.
