Down to 15 rounds (9mm) with an Elite on my tail when I finally found the lift down from civ 2. Had to run for the lift with it swiping me from behind.
Should have made it out easily after killing the queen (even though I never even saw a heavy weapon), but couldn't find lifts for love nor money on the way back down. Keeping a record of the way you came seems to be a very good idea. I ran out of pulse rifle ammo about 4 floors up with no sign of a lift down to the 3rd floor of anywhere, and had to downgrade to the MP5.
I like the ending :)
