I found the hwk for $12, should i buy it?

If you haven't got one, yes. Even if you never use it the mini is great to paint, plus I get regular use out of my two as either Rebel Operatives, Jan Ors, Palob or Torkil Mux.

It's a good ship. And if you ever want to get into Scum with Most Wanted, it makes a good scum support ship (Most Wanted comes with the Scum pilots for it). Jan Ors is great as well. High pilot skill with a good ability to support offensive ships.

I've been planning to run a Roark Garnet build alongside the Zeb TIE with the Captured TIE modification.

Too versatile to pass up. The fact in can fly two factions makes it worthwhile. Plus Rey/Jan lists are coming into vogue and Palob is pretty useful.

Yes you should get it .. I have four, and have flown triple hawk builds for both rebel and scum and both are fun to fly

Useless primay and sh*tty dial, but otherwise a nice support ship. Get it if you like it, there are ways to use it.
For exemple, I like Jan Ors with TLT, Vectored Thrusters, Nien Numb and Wired.

While the ship itself is quite crappy, the named pilots for both factions are both useful and quite fun. As long as you factor in the fact that you MUST equip a turret, you will be golden. Let it hang out in the back and work its magic.

They sell them at a local music store around me for 10 bucks and I still don't have one. Shame on me

The best ship in the game, good dial for TLT. You need at least 2.

I have a double HWK & single Y-Wing list that I love to death. It rips apart aces and can kill most ships in 1 round, if not 2. More than once it has killed (Pre-nerf x7's) triple defenders in 3 rounds of fire.

I'd love to see that list...

The ultimate focus battery:

HWK 290:Kyle Katarn:Base:21,Total:36

Wired 1

TLT 6

Jyn 2

Experimental Interface 3

Title: Moldy Crow: 3

Since ship will be hanging back, slowrolling, it will probably have 1,2,3 ships in arc at range 2,3 for Jyn Erso to produce 1,2,3 focus per turn from Jyn.

EI will allow to take a focus action, then a Jyn action for 1 to 3 more focus.

So can produce 2,3,4 focus per turn, store, save it. Then after 1,2,3 turns, and after save up about 2 to 12 focus, can start giving out focus to 1,2,3 other friendly ships each turn.

Also while doing that, can use a Wired, TL, focus token, TLT to do 1,2 damage each turn to a enemy ship.

Meanwhile other friendly ships are blocking, being a threat, keep other ships from you, at least for a while.

Also if Jan Ors Crew is on another friendly ship then can get a evade token to help HWK when attacked.

Also if there is another HWK 290 in the list that is JAN ORS then each of your 2 TLT attacks get 4 dice, instead of 3 dice, and with 4 attack dice, and Wired, TL, focus, your almost guaranteed to do 2 TLT damage to a enemy ship each round.

And could run a ARC 170, or a U Wing, or a 32 point Vrill YT 2400 to go along with Kyle Katarn HWK, and Jan Ors HWK

Still wonder if should get a HWK 290 or 2?

Lol.
