so im at a store tournament soon I will be running palp list with vader n fel but im really hoping to take the tie AP if its released. This is what ive come up with
OGP 21
palpatine 8
sensor jammer 4
darth vader 29
VI 1
engine upgrade 4
tie/x1
ATC 1
the inquisitor 25
PTL 3
tie/v1 1
autothrusters 2
any thoughts?
I like the list. I'm thinking about something similar.
If the Inquisitor is out by that time, you want to be running Electronic Baffler on the shuttle. All bets are that it will vastly increase the amount of time the thing can stay on target while still granting a couple extra actions after red maneuvers. You'll sacrifice some HP, but that just makes the shuttle a bigger target. That's fine, because it means they aren't shooting at your mobile aces.
With Baffler, that's 35pts for Vader, 30pts for Shuttle, 31pts for Inquisitor. With your remaning 4 points, put Proton Rockets on your favorite Tie Advanced and save a 1pt bid for other Vaders, and possibly for PS11 Dengar, if he shows up.
Or, you can scrap the Proton Rockets, and convert the shuttle pilot to Captain Yorr, which will make that ship an anti-stresshog when combined with the Baffler. It'll explode fast, but Inquisitor and Vader will have time to melt down the offending Stresshog with impunity.

I don't like the idea of baffler on a Palp shuttle, but it could be useful. Proton rockets would be nice for this list though since while its good and all, being able to dish out more damage can't hurt 
Self-damage on the Palpmobile? "The Emperor does not share your optimistic appraisal of the situation."
I was playing around with an alternative Palpmobile list after reading another post somewhere on the boards. This ended up coming to exactly 100 points.
The Inquisitor (25)
+ Push the Limit (3)
+ Autothrusters (2)
+ TIE/v1 (1)
"Omega Leader" (21)
+ Comm Relay (3)
+ Juke (2)
Omicron Group Pilot (21)
+ Emperor Palpatine (8)
"Wampa" (14)
Pretty well-known quantities with the first three at this point. There were exactly 14 points left, so if you get that far in the firing order without using Palpatine yet, the Emperor can guarantee a damage card on someone. Plus, it's one more ship than usual!

Yeah I saw someone using this exact list on VASSAL not long ago. Looks pretty potent!
