So I've played my first game with this list, and it went pretty well. All 3 ships spent half the game living in Dash's blind spot.

Darth Vader

-Predator

-X1 Title

-ATC

Soontir Fel

-PTL

-Royal Guard Title

-Auto Thrusters

-Stealth Device

Turr Phenir

-VI

-Royal Guard Title

-Shield Upgrade

-Auto Thrusters

How did the ATC work out for you?

The ATC worked really well with Vader, since he has the double action I was able to change targets on the fly, and still get a Focused attack. Predator giving the re-roll meant I was usually giving 2H+1Crit all game.

I played against a Corran+Dash build, not optimized, but still a potent combination.

The ATC giving the extra hit allowed Turr and Vader to 1-round Corran on the initial pass, while Soontir kept harassing Dash.

The Auto Thrusters saved Turr multiple times, being able to shoot at PS 9, then either move into range 3 or out of arc gave me pretty good odds on dodging the HLC.
