I see capns blockading 20 or 30 havens near them, why do they need to do that? What do you gain since you can only collect resources from the top 3 producing havens?
To keep others from blocking and/or raiding, and those most extreme cases (hundreds if not thousands of blocks) do it to get in the weekly top 10 blockers.

And since they are likely to have very few defenders on those blockaded havens, why not hit them with very few offensive forces all the time to get points? Isn't that an easy way to pick up PVP and experience pts?
You won't get PvPs from killing a single Bonnie or a single defending Marauder, but many captains see this as an act of war and can get... a wee bit vengeful. I suggest you tread carefully.
IMO, the effort of liberating 5k havens is not worth 100 Juggs, even if we ignore the wrath of some captains. Also, it should be easy enough to arrange friendly liberations (you block some havens, they liberate and reblock, then you liberate and reblock,... rinse and repeat) if you really crave those Juggs. Can be a captain in your own BH; the game is not checking if it's a friend or an enemy.
