Rebel Triple Hawk

By RedDave87, in X-Wing Squad Lists

This started mostly as a joke, but is looking more and more reasonable all the time.

Anyways, lots of tricks in this list and plenty of area coverage. Should be fun even if it isn't that great.

Jan Ors (36)

+ Twin Laser Turret

+ Veteran Instincts

+ Chewbacca

Kyle Katarn (34)

+ Blaster Turret

+ Predator

+ Recon Specialist

+ Moldy Crow

Roark Garnet (29)

+ Twin Laser Turret

+ R2-D2

Kyle and Jan shoot at PS 12 and 10 respectively. Kyle fires a 4 ATT Blaster turret with focus and reroll at PS12. Plenty of Range coverage with 2 TLTs. You don't have to fly in formation, just be within Range 3 of the other dirty birds.

Also, if you've never tried R2-D2 crew on a HWK-290 then you're missing out. Little fella recharges so many shields throughout a match it just isn't funny. Bit of a gamble though, you sure don't want to flip up that munitions failure crit.

Seems like a lot of fun. I mean, it doesn't have to be top tier to have fun, right?

Remember to Fly Casual.

How about putting swarm tactics on Jan instead of vi? Then you can shoot 12 12 6 or 12 12 4.

I like the way you think.

This configuration gives me an uncomfortable-ness... I have a buddy who loves the HWK, I might point him in this direction, much to my chagrin

I like the 4 dice PS 12 Blaster Turret. You kind of negate a PWT's advantage by being able to hit them at range 3. Usually when flying a HWK, you end up try to chase one down and they simple boost out of your firing range.

You know what, its not a half bad squad. The Twin Laser Turret is really going to breath life into the HWK.

Put VI on both Jan an Kyle and shoot 12,12, 12.

You mean swarm?? Problem with swarm is that they have to stay together. Only works at range 1

Good point. Not thinking too clearly. Need better ventilation when spraying.

It would be fun to fight the three Rebel HWKs vs the 3 Scum HWKs. I wonder who would come out on top.

Reminds me of something...

I must be missing something, I do not see how you are getting that jab and Kyle shoot at 12 and 10. When I put this into the build tool I see Jan at 10, Kyle at 6 and Roark at 4..

Nevermind, I missed roarks pilot ability.
