Roark and Captured TIE

[kempokid 868]

HWK-290 pilot Roark Garnet's ability states: 

"At the start of the Combat phase, choose 1 other friendly ship at Range 1-3. Until the end of the phase, treat that ship's pilot skill value as "12."

Would I be able to fly Roark with a TIE to maximize the Captured TIE upgrade?

"enemy ships with a pilot skill value lower than yours cannot declare you as the target of an attack..."

Yes, that works.

Yes, this is allowed. Also, on Ahsoka or Sabine you can use Swarm Tactics to pass your PS12 to someone else.

Thanks! The only risk I'm running is keeping them in range the whole time I need them to. That, and you know... flying the HWK.
