I don't want to reduce the blockade issue to being one that only has one possible solution. I don't even want you to think that all you ideas so far have been useless- it is just that I see the Imperial players being able to see past it all (incidentally, looks like the Captainplayer will be doing the Squadron Leader's job, so you will be up against a player after all).
Let me put it this way- the chances of those freighters, slow and bulky as they are, flying past a pre-set Imperial blockade of three Star Destroyers and attendant fighters are about nil, whether you are with them or not. Chances are they'll just turn around and go home.
But concentrate on exactly what your objective is here. What are you, ultimately, trying to do, in reagrds to this specific blockade situation?

(If we can pull that off. We need to know when and where the shipment is comming though. Otherwise, we'll have to just sit in space and wait. Unless we could make it there in time from the surface if we were ready. We could comm the ships when they arrive, tell them to wait for us. Maybe the Imps won't simply fire on freighters that have just arrived, maybe they actually have to try to run the blockade first. Sounds like a plan to me!)

1. Wait for the freighters to come in (either in orbit, which might attract Imp attention, or on planet, which would take longer I'm guessing)
2. Comm the freighters and convince them to head for a/the moon
3. Meet with the freighters on the moon (would this be a blockade run just to get out, Ush?)
4. Take on the cargo
5. Haul ass back down to the planet as the freighters head back out (second run?)
6. Land in the jungle (you guys still need to get Drakkon's Osokans on jungle-clearing duty, don't you?)
7. Prepare weapons for use against the Imperial landing point.

Well, you can't comm a ship in hyperspace... how can we talk to them before they even get there?
As for the cargo... can it be dropped on the moon and picked up later? Except that means Rebs would be making multiple blockade runs, and have to be able to find the spot on the moon again...
