Since SDDs supposedly work by overloading the ship's engines, how about giving them "engine component" status so that ion weapons will affect them as well? The result would be that most captured ships will be dead in the water with their engines destroyed and most (or all) of their supplies gone, but it seems reasonable to me that if you're trying to board an enemy ship in RL one of the things you'd have to do would be to disable its engines anyway.

Space monsters are an excellent idea. A few suggestions to toughen them up:

Mouth or ingestion ability of some kind: Point blank weapon, does tons of damage, would be like the monster ate another ship.

Make all components armor and make all components use the armor regen ability.

Create something life leaves for solar supply regen.

Give them compnents that boost defense (a space monster is going to have a little better responses than a ship with people at the helm)

well, just some suggestions.
