Can you please clarify how Ships Power is used.

If power is allocated to a ships system is that power no longer available to the main drive?

Lasers require 3 power instead of 1 for conventional weapons, do any other systems require power (eg sensors)?

Power is both the main drive and reserve of energy, Deep Class get +2 power (assumed energy reserves). Big ships have greater power. This makes big deep class ships very fast, which seems counter intuitive? A medium battle class ship should easily outrun a big deep class?
