Riot Shield, Equipment, 1 pool, U Melee weapon. Strike: dodge. Or if bearer has Nightstick equipped, strike: dodge with an additional strike only usable with Nightstick. Only usable once each round. Optionally: Riot Shield, Equipment, 1 pool, U Melee weapon. Strike: dodge. Or if bearer has a melee weapon equipped, strike: dodge with an additional strike only usable with melee weapon. Only usable once each round. Just for fun =) Ivan - Maybe this?

Just for fun: if you have, Riot Shield, Nightstick and LeatherJacket prevent 2 up damage

Strike: prevent all damage from the opposing minion's strike (including any currently-resolving strike), with an additional strike only usable with a Nightstick. Only usable once each round. Dodge is quite powerful, it should prevent only the opposing minion strike, like Nightstick does. Prince of Paris, France Ratings Coordinator, Rules Director

With this, they could have an even mix of both for no disadvantage and a very flavorful potential bonus effect.
