So, I was just wondering, what ship do you guys think is the best to carry an HLC?
Personally, I think it's the TIE/D but that's just my opinion.

It is for now, but the Outrider is going to supplant it.
Maybe the Sick?
Dash by far
Already answered in the last thread on this subject its the defender.
Defender for Imperials.
YT-2400 for Rebels.
Krassis gets an honorable mention as does a b-wing.
Edited by TheGreedyMerchantTough choices. Pretty much everything that can use it have the tools to make it excel.
Personal choice right now: B-Wing for Rebels and I need to try it on some Imperial ships first. The more I think about it the Lambda can be really nasty.
If you look at it from the best possible scenario if you are shooting at a target at range 3 that also has a range 3 shot at you. You get 4 evade and 4 attack dice with defender ship while the person attacking defender gets no bonus to evade and the white k turn taking an hlc from behind and no shot back even better
TIE Defender in general, Rexler Brath in particular.
Worst user? Ten Numb.
Firespray

No because it cant fire out the rear arc and thats what you'll fire out of most often.

Maybe that's how YOU shoot most, but that's not true for everyone. Krassis is a champ.

Problem with the firespray is the speed, meaning that you can take advantadge of the cannon only every few turns.
Dash saviour of the galaxy will be the best HLC user, right now it is the defender.
Defender for sure. I've been having a blast with the 2x Delta HLC + Jonus Predator build. Probably one of the best jousting lists out there, and all three can be decent threats even if the formation gets broken up

Yep. I LOVE using two HLC defenders and Jonus. It's pure magic.
Just a thought. The Jonus/HLC boys seem like a legit threat to Dash with their high ranged firepower.

They're a legit threat to ANYONE. High ranged firepower is great against any list.
Farlander by far. Lander.
The Outrider it's amazing
Really hoping the M3A comes in at 13 points for the lowest PS. Four of those + Heavy Scyk + HLC + Hull Upgrade (for durability and bomb-proofing). 25 points apiece for speedy HLCs sounds like fun!

This was like that one time someone challenged everyone to make any list where an upgrade you couldn't normally take cost you 1 point for the first not-allowed upgrade on the ship then 2 for the next, and 3 for the next. etc.
So.. for 12 + 7 + 1, you could get 5 Tie Fighters with HLC.
Now THAT is a scary squad.

Yeah, I remember that. That would be the freakiest thing ever to see across a table.

Pretty much my answer.
Though Im not a big fan of hlc on a firespray i tend to like ion better with krassis

Screw that, if it comes in at 13 points, I'm taking 5 of them with HLCs!
You need the Heavy Scyk upgrade to take the cannons, so they'd have to be 11 points base to get 5 HLCs in there.
