I like large, pizza shaped ships. Problem is, everyone says the VSD is old hat and no use anymore.

I say pish to that. It's a great carrier and a great carrier of Tractor Beams :-)

This is my Imperial Interdiction list, coming to a table near my house soon.

you know , i tryed a similar build to this except i had ISD-I , Motti really comes into his own around round 5 when your are shield-less and have 10-11 dmg , but the rebels are usually trying to stay on the map at that point usually-- victory class is woefully slow but can deliver the black dice , but you HAVE to move them in a fashion to protect the rear of the ISD. Either a Reverse flying V, or a cross deployment where the imperial is at 3 speed, moves pointy end to pointy end (with all yaws) with the other 2 victorys, to the point ends stay in the right directions, using the black dice as a defense basically to any who try to flank ISD

I love the theme of this fleet :D

Slight tweaking to balance the list.
