In the Star Wars canon, even at the height of their power we see that the Rebel Alliance had difficulty intercepting and decrypting Imperial transmissions, it took them stealing an old Imperial shuttle to even get to Endor, and even then with them transmitting older codes which had, more then likely, been switched out, the Empire was smart enough to know that something was a miss.
So I object that a group like the Libs even has the capability to tap into the Imperial communications. Even with the Iron Fist, it is still more than likely that after its capture and kind of codes that may have been used would have been changed and shifted to prevent such tapping into their communications. The only way I see the Libs even knowing about the Empire's plans is if the Empire purposely transmitted them with the old codes to allow the Iron Fist to pick up, which I view as only likely in the event of wanting to track down the Iron Fist.

| Here where Tremaine says that the message has been intercepted and Decrypted.
Here for a second time where Tremaine says the same as the above
Here Where Tremaine and Darwin both state that they somehow know that the Empire is going to arrive at Harrun Kal

| Oh, I see it. Yeah, sorry Tremaine, that isn't possible. Rest assured, Deschain plans to get the information into the Libs's hands that Mika Jeebs is being transferred; I don't know how he plans to do it—with Vaughn, probably—but slicing into the highest-level Imperial communications isn't it. It's not possible. For one thing, an attempt to slice into another character's communications is considered an "attack" on the character and in turn-based rules it means the player needs a chance to counter it, or else it's considered a mode. A good example was Trevor Page slicing into Njon the Hutt's communications on Nar Shaddaa. But also, I don't remember the Libs having a slicing capability that's been mentioned. Also, even if it were successful, you'd be slicing "blind" into Imperial communications—that is, the Libs don't know what to look for; if they're slicing into all the Grand Vizier's communications, for instance, they're far more likely to get some boring memo about taxation of trade routes or something. But it's a moot point because, again, it's not possible nor is it a fair precedent to set.
But I would say, don't worry. The information you want, you're going to get.

| That's okay I'll withdraw the slicing part. As long as the Libs don't get completely wiped out in one attack. Darwin is going to Nar Shaddaa because he want to look for allies to fight the Empire since it's the best place to get information.
