The obvious answer to that is either do not cross-genre, or redesign 
Tuffleyverse ships to work in the new 'verse, or, as you have done,
abstract 
systems (I actually like that to some extent).

Not sure about the Beam 2, I'd not give it more than a beam 1.	The 
Concussion Missiles are probabvly more suited to being a sm pack,
especially 
if you abstract things.
