2 HWK-290 2 Cartel Marauder

By Backslide, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Been running list like this for a bit and this have proven to be a heap of fun, before I got the Cartel Marauders I was running Ywings, the K's are much better supports for the Hwks and cheaper

HWK-290: · Palob Godalhi (20) Opportunist (4) Blaster Turret (4) K4 Security Droid (3) · Moldy Crow (3)

HWK-290: · Torkil Mux (19) Twin Laser Turret (6) Greedo (1)

Kihraxz Fighter: Cartel Marauder (20)

Kihraxz Fighter: Cartel Marauder (20)

it is a lot of points on Pablo but its always entertaining, he was kind enough to one shot a phantom today, I expected Greedo to bite me but he paid off

Looks like a fun list.

I have been running Torkil and Palob in the same configuration as you, just with Guri instead of the K-Fighters with some success. My experience is that it works quite well until your opponent figures out to go after Palob instead of Guri first. How do you keep Palob alive?

I still have two K-Fighters lying around I have not used so far, so I guess I will give your build a try.

Greedo is a good addition I think. I love the scum HWKs, they're a really underused ship, in my opinion. How do you fly it? Formation with Marauders up front and HWKs in back?

I normally put the K to the left or the right given their slightly faster dial, keep the Hwks alive, well that the trick... I tend to expose the K's put them in places where they will get 4 dice so they have to be dealt with, the 1 sharp really helps
