Include Minor Faction Ships for Custom Factions

It would be great if those ships models would be avalible for custom factions!

I believe this could be a worthwhile addition to the game if each minor faction instead had one unit they could add to your list of available ships, like how they were handled in Endless Legend, rather than make an addition that would quite literally take a rework of the tech tree in order to introduce, and might as well be classed as a whole new civilization.

On the same topic of ships, I believe it would be great if the dev team made the ships available in the market able to be edited and retrofitted when bought, because they become obsolete rather quickly, and are quite useless.

That would also be a great feature, I just personally would like to use the Minor Faction models for my custom factions. The problem with that is that there aren't models for every type of ship.

Being able to upgrade market ships really should be a feature, I have never used them for that very reason.

I can see how this is problematic for the Devs as this would mean either new hull types, or tens of new ship designs. 

What about minor factions rather not just give you an ability, but also special weapon modules? The more peaceful minor factions give you defense or support modules, and the more aggressive/industrial ones unique or improved weapon modules? This way the devs are spared a hell of a lot of difficulty, and we still get to customise ships based on our minor factions. 

Don't get me wrong, unique ships for each minor faction would still be better. I just think this is a nice middle-ground.
