Made with the assistance of Armada Warlords.

The Interdictor is meant to be the flagship, but Warlords currently does not have the Interdictor in it's database.

Why so many rerolls? You've got rerolls on every ship except the interdictor, in addition to darth Vader. I think this could benefit from either a different commander or different weapons teams. Going with Motti would free up some point for suggestions I'm about to make, and make the interdictor really hard to kill.

With no squadrons, I would suggest upgrading the Gladiator and/or Raider to II-class. Get those AS benefits where possible. Otherwise you're going to have a bad time against bombers. Remember that your big ships are also slow (speculatively on the interdictor, anyways) and enemy squadrons would only need to park in front of you in order to deal damage without ship commands.

Engine teching the Glad is never a bad thing, unless you want more points for the bid.
