Gameplay[]
Information[]
A pilot with exceptional skill, but very much in need of a few lucky breaks. The handful of fights he's won aren't enough to pay for upgrades, but the tough losses are only making him a better pilot. He'll do fine once his luck turns.
Strategy[]
Hard Edge will frequently overboost while rushing you with either his missiles or machine gun. He will rely on his AC's mobility to try and flank you, so make an effort to keep him in your sights. Though not equipped with particularly dangerous weapons, Hard Edge compensates for it by keeping the pressure on and trying to stay close to you, so evasive maneuvers are recommended when engaging him.
His AC does harbor a good amount of AP so you'd want something that can break him apart quickly, though slower firing weapons aren't recommended as he is smart enough to use overboost to avoid damage. For this reason, rapid-fire weapons with good damage are recommended, such as machine guns like his own or missiles. Overall, Hard Edge may pose a slight challenge, but by no means a difficult foe.
