Since this years Gencon Interactive, our Sparks group will be hitting the battle of Hoth and other ESB related events, i am wondering does anyone know anything official for if/whether after the Empire hit the base and the rebels left:

A) how many people/who got captured
B) whether they destroyed the facility afterwards
C) if the rebellion ever went BACK

Those Rebels lucky enough to survive the battle evacuated the planet.[5] The debris of the battlefield attracted the scavenger Arns Grimraker.[20]
During the battle, a group of eighteen Rebels deemed most valuable to the Alliance's cause jettisoned from the disabled GR-75 medium transport Bright Hope back to Hoth's surface aboard an escape pod. They were forced to survive on Hoth for more than a month before a rescue party led by Commander Toryn Farr was dispatched to recover them.[21]
...The Empire captured numerous wampas and from their base stock bioengineered the cliff wampas which the Imperials used to guard their facilities on Gall.[22] An Imperial Correctional Center was established on the planet, which became known for its harsh conditions; it was said no inmate survived more than three years there before freezing to death. In 5 ABY, the imposter of Kadann sentenced Grand Moff Dunhausen to four years imprisonment at the Center.[10] By 4.3 ABY, the interstellar travel agency Star Tours had planned for a family getaway vacation deal to Hoth.[23]
Kyle Katarn and Jaden Korr later located an Empire Reborn base on the planet.[11]
In 12 ABY Luke Skywalker and Callista Ming visited the planet to attempt to regain Callista's Force powers. They encountered a group of smugglers who were hunting wampas for their valuable pelts. Luke happened to come across One-Arm, the wampa that captured him prior to the Battle of Hoth. The two Jedi barely escaped from the savage wampas.[24]

In the years following the Battle of Hoth, scavengers established temporary base camps on the planet to scrap the AT-ATs destroyed by the Alliance during the Empire's attack.[8]

No mention of it elsewhere, but it's almost a sure bet that at least a few probe droids are floating around, post Battle of Hoth, just in case the Rebels return.

Do you have the ESB Galaxy Guide? Can't recall the number in the series but that may have a lot of the data you are asking about in terms of numbers of rebels and so on.

I'm working on stuff related to this too, I have just built enough Hoth terrain for a miniatures battle (basically just some white hills and a shield generator, though I will expand it) and am now painting two armies of WEG pewter Hoth guys. The imps are up to "scenario" level, with "campaign" size collection being the goal, and I have just finished my first squad of Hoth rebels.

I can't decide if we'll game on Hoth itself, or if this is going to be some other SW universe icy warfare.
