By the way, since a lot of people seem to like the idea of just putting hard caps on the number of flying ships which can be built:

If hard caps do end up being what the wiki votes for, DO NOT USE MY "GENERATION #" CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM. It is a highly flawed system with no defined boundaries and was only ever intended as a general guideline to make discussions involving flying ships a bit easier (basically, it's just something I came up with to differentiate between flying ships of different sizes and produced in different time periods, and because it sounded better than saying "that large-ish relatively old ship" etc.). If you really want to make hard caps like that, you'll have to figure out a way to make it work, because the "Generation #" system is not even close to precise enough and takes into consideration too few variables, as well as some which are entirely irrelevant to how powerful a ship is (e.g. when it was constructed).
