Just a thought here.... i didnt actually read everything here but what if the Utopia Planetia complex was more like a neutral tech building. With an applied bonus when under a players control.
For those who've not played the Command and conquer series its essentially a building located on the map in which units can gain possession of and receive a bonus (tech, unit type, resources, vision) as long as its in that players control.

hmm... but could it still be utopia planetia then? or even similar? how would borg and such get control of such a thing?
it would become something for all factions.
I'm not against this idea. but maybe put it as something different then. if it were to go that way, we could put in yards that help with starting at higher ranks.
maybe not even double gold bar. keep that for a potential future avatar like suggested earlier. this yard just helps people start at silver bar.
so then, the yard would customize its build order based on the faction that is controlling it or?
i would still like something or other for a federation late game thing. id really like it possible for them to churn out a couple double gold bar ships of a yard. even if you have to upgrade towards it. the idea of recruiting personnel in that manner seems realistic to me. you reassign someone to a particular area of space. like asteroid helma, maybe someone is very familiar in fighting in an asteroid filled area. or wide open space etc. i mean, you can apply lots of criteria for the benefits of calling in specialized crew, that in turn improve your ships and ranks.
another idea i was thinking of, either for feds or another late game thing. is what about a way for a faction to increase the veteran slot limit due to the help of some station or ships special. the nova increases warpin slots at veteran. what if for any faction, aside from borg, when a particular ships promotes to veteran, it increases the number of veteran slots.

SFCIII had"Generic stock" yard . Why not use the that for a Fleet Tatical Training station in conjunction with Utopia Planetia yards . Fleet Tatical Training station is two yards seperated by a Central hub. You place one of you Veteran ships in the Fleet Tatical Training station and after a set time (5) minutes your fleet gets a additional but tempory warp in slot(1minute) or a permanate additional veteran slot. Utopia Planetia yards will build the veteran ship with 2other ships in blocks of three and will crew the ships from the Fleet Tatical Training station.Once finished you will get 1 Veteran and 2 non ranked ships from the build Que.
