A rebelpilot crashed at the edge of the woods, the PC's see this and come to his resque. As soon as they lift him out of the vehicle, Tie Fighters come out of the clouds and start shooting at them.
Quickly they all flee into the woods and if they stay to watch they see a convoy of Imperials deploying to start a search party.
It's a 2 day walk in the forest to the nearby city (made in the woods, but very luxerous where they hope to find some help from the local chief).

What possible encounters can I run in the forest? Not all combat, although it's possible that they'll run into some troopers.

This seems like a good opportunity for what some of the old-timers call a "hex crawl," in which the PCs must cover a broad stretch of outdoor terrain. Here are a few possibilities:

1. The PCs can monitor the Imperials who are following them, perhaps by watching for vehicles passing overhead or even, perhaps, by monitoring Imperial comm frequencies. At the same time, they need to make Stealth checks during the flyovers.

2. During the pursuit, the PCs can run into natural obstacles, such as needing to climb a cliff face, swim a river, etc. This requires Athletics checks, along with Survival efforts to find the best route.

3. They could have a run-in with a natural predator and thus need to make a difficult decision. Do they try to fight it quietly, or use louder weapons that their pursuers might hear?

4. Any critical injuries could hamper characters' movement, requiring improvisation by the others so their pace isn't slowed.

5. Do they have adequate food and water? If not, they need to make Survival checks to find them.

6. If they stop to rest, then they need to conceal their camp and keep watch in order to avoid discovery.

7. There could always be some NPC who lives in the area. If the PCs run into that being, then they need to convince him/her/it that there's nothing unusual about them, in spite of any obvious battle injuries or war materiel that they might have.
