The main reason i'm posting however is my points mirror Scag's and I have not been "fed".So it can be done you can have a reasonable to medium fleet and shightey mines it means loads of raiding and using the merchant or a player trader but it can be done.Pus the fact I know how active Scag has been as we have the odd bit of banter while we are hunting.
Thought I would poke my nose in because it bugged me that someone might look at mine, or other players who take this route points, and wrongly assume we ruby buy fleets or are being serviced (steady)

To the Topic
Like the Cow I'm rooting for MDK Go the underdog !(its an Irish R.C. thing) plus me and old scag were chasing each other a while and I missed his fleet due to fleet back too late a cpl times (even offered it out twice to four different players jammy dawg) but I must say Ive grown to have a healthy respect for old Scag, and his points actually show a fast improving more than decent player.... as long as he stays awake.8)
