HEYYYY this thread sprang to life.

Insofar as I am aware, Imperials have yet to arrive, but COMPFORCE will probably be there soon -- the ambush so far is bounty hunters and assorted thugs, and therefore are not military. [@mdk] can correct me, however.

Yeah. Maybe one or two COMPFORCE types mixed in with the gangs, but this is purely a 'wretched hive of scum and villainy' thing just now. The firefight is taking place a few blocks from the escape ship -- we need to get everyone on the shuttle, but we're only as quick as our slowest hutt. 

edit: but enemy reinforcements will be here soon, and then life will be [i]really[/i] miserable.
