Rifleman Archive

I have a couple of questions regarding the template thatis mentioned in the title. I just reactivated my account after taking a little vacation from things and alot has changed in game but I was thinking of heading back down the path to Master Rifleman again. I wanted to do a rifleman/CM template but if you master both (assuming that you only take 4004 in marksman) you will only have 4 points left. Now I dont know how powerful/useful tapes can be in game (as they were still pretty rare when I left) but that would leave me with zero scout, and terrain nav is kind ofimportant (unless I can use tapes to compensate for no scout). So I guess my question is this: How much CM is needed to be able to use the best mind poisons and diseases since thats the route I wanna go (anti-mind bar kind of character) and is it feasible to do it and be effective in the GCW. Im not sure how much all the mind buffing drugs/foods/entertainers affect PvP combat so im asking for your outlook on the situation.
