I just had another idea:
how about the possibility of CAPTURING ships during combat? That way, a 
player can 
  a) catch up on technology and
  b) have some profits (metal) out of a battle

and what do you think about espionage? But then again, people start complaining
that SpW Ho! is getting (or might be) too complex...

well, just my 2 c$.
