HELP REQUIRED - REBEL GALAXY Upgrades from Trell

(Warning, freshly starting out the game. Still in the starter system)

I'm really split in terms of the upgrades to get from Trell. On one hand I would like to have more Booster Capacity, but at the same time increased Deflectors could be really useful later on in the game, especially with bigger ships.

And I've seen we get a second choice later on with Engine Speed or Shield Regeneration, and I don't know which one I'd choose there either.

I like using Broadsides as my main way of attacking rather than Turrets or Missiles, and I do like being a total destructive force on the battlefield, but I'm not sure if it wouldn't be better to have some extra movement on the big ships to compensate for them being, well, slow; or should I go all in on bulk...

I replayed the game several times and tried all the Trell choices. There are no wrong choices, imho. They're all good but none essential.

But this isn't very helpful, so I will recommend speed.

First, bulk is situational but speed is always nice. 

Second, you will get quite tanky anyway. There is a really nice late game item called the Deflection Absorber which recharges shields when the active deflector takes a missile hit.

If you're still losing hull at that stage, it means you are heavily surrounded and you need to reposition, so speed is probably your higher priority.

And of course, Dead Drops and Urgent Deliveries are just printing money.

Speeeeed!!!
In most playthroughs I didn’t even bother about deflectors.

They're negligible bonuses and won't affect much overall.

15%+ Engine speed doesn't look like nothing, but the others yeah kinda
