Well, my initial plan was to bring those areas of space under the official banner of the Remnant, which would more than double the indicated area currently held by the Empire without directly stepping on Republic toes. I just wanted to know if I was going up against Pentastar, Hutts, Free systems, whatever. I just wanted to be sure what was there. For that I might need to NPC Ysanne a bit or wait for someone else to take on her juicy role. Certainly I wouldn't have her as one of my main characters simply because I wouldn't be very good at writing her.
