Hey all, completed my review of the HWK-290.

Full review here link

I've gotten in several games with and against a HWK-290. The Kyle Katarn version with Recon specialist and Moldy Crow Title card is a focus building machine. Very helpful. The more I played with it the more I liked it.

-Enjoy

Thanks for the review!

The HWK-290 is from the Dark Empire PC/video game series and Kyle Kytaran is the character of note and his partner Jan that fly the Moldy Crow.

I remember this from the video game, that was quite some time ago! I haven't seen the ship yet at retail, my area is just not getting in the Slave Ones and falcons (saw them last night for the first time in Barnes & Noble).

I look forward to getting it though, nice review!!!!

I can't bring myuself to buy it; the model is ugly and to me, not very Star Wars.

I'll buy one if for nothing more than to add to the collection.

For scenario play, I love it. Used 2 basic pony Rebel Operatives in a game this weekend as passenger craft the Empire was trying to stop and search using TIE Bomber/Boarding-Craft for escaping saboteurs.

It will also make a great boarding craft for the Rebels.

But for 100 point list style games, I'm not sure yet if 1 of them would be consistently worth the points cost for a useful named pilot.
