simple. you do it the easy to do way, and by definition also acomplish it the other way around. once you set a baseline, ships are either slow or fast as compared to the existing precident. so you make the slow system ships that are fast in combat, and the other ships that move full strategic speed of 10 or so, and 5 or so in combat are by comparison fast in system, and slow in combat. even if they would regularly be average in the normal game.
