So if we are having issues with Rieekan how can we deal with the problem.............

I have a cunning multi point plan when faced with Rieekan:

1) say you need the toilet

2) find a cubical, spark up a smoke.....

3) relax and wait

4) when the fire alarm goes off and the building is evacuated sneak back to your table

5) get your opponents Rieekan card, role it up and smoke it.....

6) pop outside

7) when you are all back in look forgetful and ask if you can just read Rieekans effect again, look shocked when your oppenent has not got all the cards he needs.

Repeat until there are no Rieekan cards left in the building

But what if you don't smoke?

Convince your opponent that the end of the status phase exists in pereptuity, because all things are happening and not happening at all times, and as such is a junk card and shouldn't be played because its effect is worthless.*

*Strategy may require copious amounts of Marijuana and a rudimentary understanding of quantum physics so poorly established that calling it an "understanding" is laughable

The more healthy players will need to develop their own tactics......

The status phase is the end of the activation. All Rieekan does is if I blow up your ship, he isn't removed until after I finished moving my ship, so he can still block my moving. He's not that good.

I only approve of smoking Rieekan for medicinal puposes.

It relieves stress.

Ahh clearly a valid reason. Ok then puff away

You don't need to be a smoker to carry a lighter. Fancy Zippos make great whatsits.

A nice imperial " anti rebel" Zippo.....

Take a list with Sloane, Demo and 6 gozanti.

TIEs rip aces to shreds. Demo blows up combat ships.

Rieekan not so funny anymore.

Tell your opponent that his copy of Rieekan has the name spelled wrong and that it isn't a legal card. Since nobody can spell Rieekan without looking at a phone (not allowed), he can't counter your argument.

Liberal applications of deodorant will prevent things from Rieekan!
