I know the game is somewhat dead, but I like the models and I think it plays pretty gud.
So far I got a single dictator from ebay but I'm thinking of putting more money towards other ships and a few fighter squadrons.
So what is a balanced and lore friendly list I can take? I'm going to paint them in my imperial knight house colors, so it's somewhat a house fleet instead of a naval fleet ( I couldn't find anything with knights and the navy so I'm assuming they either taxi rides or have a personal fleet).

It's not somewhat dead, it's totally dead.

Dictators are pretty solid; so are Mars BCs. Generally, you want at least one ship with launch bays per 750pts.

Otherwise, I'm personally not a fan of the Gothic, but do like the Lunar. Especially in pairs, but otherwise a Lunar can support a Dictator pretty effectively. If you can combine torps and bombers in a single turn the enemy has to choose where to use their turrets.

For escorts, I like the Sword best, but all are usable.

I sank a lot of time into figuring out lists back in the day, but since there weren't a lot of players in my area I quit.
with all that said, this was my fav imperial fleet list to play at 2000 pts

Emperor class battleship [365pts]
- Fleet Admiral w/ 2 rerolls [75 pts]

2x Tyrant class cruiser [2*195pts]
Dominator class cruiser [190pts]
Gothic class cruiser [2*180pts]
Lunar class cruiser [2*180pts]

3x Firestorm class frigates [120pst]
4x Sword class frigates [140pts]

The Eldar and Tau minis look beautiful, and the Eldar ones are pretty cheap on Ebay. Does anyone have a good Eldar list?
