A way to nerf Rieekan

By sideshowgames1221, in Star Wars: Armada

So a friend and I were playing armada and thought of an interesting idea.

What if Rieekan only worked with ships that had unique titles (aka unique ships)?

For us at least, when you bring a ship you usuallly bring a title with it. So it's not to much of a nerf, but it also stops the 6 cr90 shenagins.

Someone might have already said this, but what are the communities thoughts?

I don't know how much of a nerf that would be. It seems that the problem isn't Rieekan, its more Rieekan + Yvaris + Aces + flotillas + Relay. And that build wouldn't be too hard to find titles for all the ships. So far I haven't seen a lot of gnashing of teeth over a Rieekan CR90 spam.

I use more ships without title than with title.

How can it stop 6cr90 shenanigans? I mean, there are only three titles for cr90 and only one is used in this kind of fleet.

EDIT: sorry I missed myself. I understood it at reverse.

I agree, but Anything helps right?Rieekan tends to be overbearing even without that combo in my opinion.

A simpler change that would have more effect IMHO: squads activated by relay do not trigger nor are affected by any special rules of the activating ship. No flight controllers. No Yavaris. No officer effects. Etc.
