In many mods I get Messages along the lines of "component cannot be used on this ship type". It seems important to me that the new components should only be used on the special "command-hulls".
The command-hulls may not be super expensive to build, but should be very expensive to maintain (is maintenance calculated directly from cost?) because all the best cuts of Alberta beef would go to the Admirals ship.
Realistically tho, all the new equipment and excellent personell would end up on the command ship, so it should have a fantastically high maintenance cost compared to the other ships.
Finally, I like the idea from Beck, only one of the special components should have a combat effect on the sector. This will keep people from loading up on just command-ships in a particular sector.
Just my thoughts,
