=== Mos Eisley Spaceport ===

'''EXT. TATOOINE - WASTELAND

'''The Landspeeder with Luke, R2, Threepio, and Ben in it zooms across the desert. The speeder stops on a bluff overlooking the spaceport at Mos Eisley. It is a haphazard array of low, gray, concrete structures and semi-domes.  A harsh gale blows across the stark canyon floor.  Luke adjusts his goggles and walks to the edge of the craggy bluff where Ben is standing.

'''BEN

'''Mos Eisley Spaceport.  You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.  We must be cautious.  

'''Ben looks over at Luke, who gives the old Jedi a determined smile.'''

Mos Eisley Spaceport is the key, the single point of failure.  Whoever controls it, controls the criminal underworld on Tattooine.  The PC's are one group of people who want to do just that.

They could be:

# Imperial agents from off-world, looking to grab Jabba's resources
# Local government agents, looking to climb the ladder of illicit power
# Agents of another Hutt
# Bold smugglers, hoping to carve out a new criminal enterprise to rival Jabba's


No force-users, though... that's important.  All of them, Luke and Darth and any others there may be lurking around... they have more important things to do.  Rebel agents are also unlikely to be at work here... Luke and the others would have made contact if there had been any significant presence.

Taking control of Mos Eisley is a fairly simple affair.  There are three installations in Mos Eisley that form its primary infrastructure; once you have those, the rest of the city is pretty much yours.  In addition, Jabba's palace, some distance from the city, is an important location.
