Battle of Neu Bremen

We are trying to recreate the Battle of Neu Bremen.  This is rather a
large
undertaking considering that not one but two Jeanne D'Arc class fleet
carriers.  We will be using the operational movement system out of Star
Fire. But there are other considerations and here are a few

1/ It was an Ambush.  What does this mean?
2/ Who owned the system at the time NSL or FSE?
3/  What does the system look like and what are the main assets found
there?
4/ In a recreated battle both players know more than the original force
commanders so how is this "god mode" suppressed?
5/ What forces were available to each force?

I have tried to answer some of these questions but I would like anyones
impute

1/Ambush.  From my limited experience on ambushes they tend to be set
piece
battles (rather than an immediate ambush drills) where you can
concentrate
an enormous amount of fire power to totally overwhelm the enemy (who is
hopefully surprised).  They are usually placed on known enemy routes
(supply
lines) or cut off forces (stopping enemy escaping after a battle)
The largest ambush I've been in (an exercise, live fire) was an infantry
company with an APC troop (12) attached along with a battery (6) of
105s.
It all looked very nice and made heaps of noise but it was a ground
force.
This brings me to my question how do you ambush in space?

5/ Forces available?
I was thinking
FSE two colonial CVA battle groups (FT: Unofficial Fleet Roster) plus
2/3 DD
groups and a CA group attached about 18000 pts

NSL the First Fleet (Von Tegetthoff FT: Unofficial Fleet Roster) plus
2/3 DD
groups and 2 CA groups attached about 28,000 pts

All of these forces would not be in the same area at the same time as a
star
system is a large place.  I'm not looking for something like Röt Hafen
as
this was more a battle of the line but rather the FSE was looking to do
some
major damage to the NSL system but got in over their head

well thats all so far I welcome any and all suggestions
