Another important one would be to increase the cost of enhanced and
superior fire controls significantly. Right now from a design point of
view, there's no reason to use basic fire control.

Off the top of my head:
Make it so armour takes up capacity (thus there is a reason to have less
than full possible armour)
Recost movement schemes and make it so you can have different rates of
many
different types (so you can have monster slow trucks through to speedy
Ferrari's)
Recost stealth/miniaturisation
Make at least some of the defensive systems use up capacity.
I don't doubt Oerjan may have more. As to what's the best way of doing
this?
I'm still figuring that out, if you have any grand ideas please don't
keep
