I think the [OFFICIAL] line on this has to be that this would not be
allowed under the design system as it stands. It can be a house rule you
can use if all your players agree with it, but it doesn't fit into the
"official" system and you shouldn't expect to be able to put such ships
in
tournaments or competitive games; within your own group, feel free to do
as
you like!  :-)
