(If you wanted to upgrade engines for example).
But it comes back to game balance.
yep, while all these things would be really great - they just cant be done. I came up with a evil idea of having ally races with different tech types. one could build a hull with crystal armor and shard cannons, or whatever. then give it to their friend who could upgrade it with engines and shields. this probably should not be done, so the conqured race thing must be omitted as well.
