Maximum number of ships in a colony

Hi. I suppose that many people has the right answer to this question, however, I don't.

When I recover ships from the warp and I have only four colonies, a colony may end with more than four ships. The manual says "at start only four ships per planet", but it doesn't say anything about a limit in number of ships per colony while the game is being played. Is there a limit in the number of ships that a colony can have?

Thanks!

There is no limit.  It's possible (but unwise) to end up with all 20 of your ships on a single colony.

It may be time to calculate the highest possible number of ships a single player can get on one colony....  Symbiote, Fungus, technology...  how high can it get before your power turns off?

Depends which expansions are we using? 

I mean, which expansion.  Sorry.

In a single power game I'm pretty sure Symbiote wins.  He can have 40 ships on one colony & still have his power (to have 40 ships... nevermind)

If we go with varients like dual powers then you have to decide how Fungus' ship stacks count.  Each ship in the stack is worth 1 for combat purposes, but each *FUNGUS* ship in a stack counts for casualties.  So does a stack with 10 captured Warpish and 1 Fungus count as 1 ship or 11?
