Maximum Ships Limit

So, do ships captured still count against the original builder's total?

No, they count in the total for the empire that captures them. Say you have a 200 ship limit and you build 200 ships. If you want to build another ship you will have to scrap one. But you can capture 10 ships from another empire and your total will now be 210, and your enemies total will be reduced. But now if you want to build another ship you'll have to scrap 11 (just 11 ships, doesn't have to be the ones you captured) to get down below the 200 ship limit. If you are a race that captures a lot, you could get way over your limit. But it will make it very difficult if you need to build anything new.
