* [[Techs, Tiers and Meta levels|Tech 1]] ~~sub-capital~~ modules ~~and ships with a few exceptions~~.

* Most [[Techs, Tiers and Meta levels|Tech 2]] modules are useable but not all.

** Most battleship weapons, [[Electronic warfare|EWAR]], most remote assistance modules, drones, harvesting modules, scanning modules and some other are limited to T1 and meta.
