Hardboard it is. I don't have a compressor, any harm with doing it with 20mm self drilling wood screws (other than it taking longer)?
Hovis-
I don't think its a problem other than time/cost of materials. Sometimes 3mm hardboard is tricky to countersink accurately. You'll want to be using a countersinking bit, if you have one with a depth stop it speeds the job up a lot.

How about nails and a hammer?

surely just some panel pins or tacks would be quicker and easier?

It seems to be good enough for the majority. Probably beats ply on price/availability. You might want to get a stapler of some type. Depends if you have compressor but there are plenty of manual types.
