I finally got around to start working on a nation: Gliese Communist Federation Territory:Gliese 581 system, Gliese 586 system. Summary: During the time, way back, when man began to explore the galaxy through the 'nodes', a colonization group was sent out from Russia to secure a foothold in an unoccupied system. The pioneers arrived in a new system with 5 planets. The star was Gliese 581. Two of the planets, 581c and 581d, were found to be habitable, nearly earthlike, but much larger. They have since been renamed Smolensk and Krutzov. Smolensk is the center of government, and pretty much everything else, though Krutzov is self sufficient. After a few hundred years, the now Communist Federation had expanded to one of the Neighbouring Systems, Gliese 586, renamed Vassikin. It has one habitable planet, Voz. They remain loyal to Old Russia, though make their own decisions. Strengths:In tradition with Old Russia, they have a large, powerful military, and a navy to match. They also have a fair espionage system. Their citizen contentness is average. Weaknesses:Having a large army isn't free, the GCF is kind of strapped for cash. Also, the old distrust of Russians seems to have carried over, and everyone is suspicious of that army. Science is slightly below average. VIPs: President Boris Zakharov Head of the GCF. Descendant of one of the first colonists, he is a firm believer of the old ways. His people have faith in him; he is a strong man, in mind and body.
General Konstentin Suvorov Descended from Aleksandr Suvorov, a Russian General in the Napoleonic wars, he is a fine commander, though he himself has little combat experience himself.
There's the gist of it.

There were an awful lot of posts to read, so I largely skipped them over, sorry if that causes problems. I'm actually adapting this from a story I am writing, a bit of phinegaling to get it to fit what is there. US Territory: The alternate sol system, namely Earth and Luna. Summary: Alternate realities exist, and US is proof. coming from a timeline where aliens took over the earth, treating the humans as a animal work force. The earth became a resort and launching point for an inter-galactic cold war. A Generic (the name for the work force) was liberated by one of the free factions at a young age. Through great tactics and shear luck he managed to free his people from the oppression of their masters. He took the old United States flag, who is believed to have been called the US, and added over two hundred stars. Each represented a country, and the stripes were also edited, nearly fifty for the years they were forced to resist. Commander Gen was nearly killed by his tattoo, a genetic modification that allowed the aliens to save their cattle by turning them into demons for a short period of time. Demons is the name given the red a green scaly super beings. His broke, and leaked into his skin. He was saved, barely. Once he took the Luna colony and forced his enemies off world, they forced them into another dimension as punishment. They were also flung far into the future, their last date was 2148. Strengths: Nearly every person is in the military, making for good fighters. Their tech is stolen from aliens. Support is unanimous, Gen delivered them from slavery. Weaknesses: They have no economy, people aren't used to factories, and they can't produce new alien tech. The population is low, numbering at less than 20,000 people for the whole planet. They don't fit in, much of their tech is illegal or incompatible with the rest of the galaxy, and they stick out like sore thumbs, as 99.9% of the populace has ident tattoos, which they can no longer control. Only the President has the ability to transform, because of his broken control. He is essentially immortal because of it. (natural causes) Espionage is crap. VIPSCommander Gen (generic): A quick learner, he tries his best to speak the truth and is usually charitable. He does not suffer fools, and can be insulting. Ariel Kosch: The second in command and lover of Gen, she is a free born. She is also an accomplished doctor and runs Luna colony. Basically, they don't have gen tic engineering tech, aside from one man, who hates is severely. He can be killed. They have AI, or rather had. Programmed to work for their masters, they destroyed all but the simplest stuff.

Last few weeks were bad, but I'm about through the woods now.

So can I use them or not? And if not, how could I change them to use them?

Commies are okay but you're going to have to submit to previous TW cannon. Which has Russia firmly returning to Tsarist control and then joining Han.
And umm.... lose the AU aspect, and lose the aliens.

Ok, they were colonists, and another colony far off coquered them, and we drove them off. I'll write the whole thing when I get time later today.

US Territory:Earth II, Luna Colony, Giraudoux asteroid belt, Osiris asteroid belt, War colony. Summary: Them used to be like US, but Them changed themselves. They took us when they had changed enough, and made US their slaves. A Generic (the name for the work force) was liberated by one of the free factions at a young age. Through great tactics and shear luck he managed to free his people from the oppression of their masters. He took the old United States flag, who is believed to have been called the US, and added over two hundred stars. Each represented a country, and the stripes were also edited, nearly fifty for the years they were forced to resist. Commander Gen was nearly killed by his tattoo, a genetic modification that allowed the masters to save their cattle by turning them into demons for a short period of time. Demons is the name given the red a green scaly super beings. His broke, and leaked into his skin. He was saved, barely. Once he took the Luna colony and forced his enemies off world, he started a war of hate. He obliterated Them from the galaxy, despite smaller numbers, and stole their technology. Strengths: Nearly every person is in the military, making for good fighters. Their tech is stolen from aliens. Support is unanimous, Gen delivered them from slavery. People are quick to learn and produce advances that were lost during their capture. They are impossible to infiltrate. Their land military is superb. Weaknesses: They have no economy, people aren't used to factories, and they can't produce new Them tech. The population is low, numbering at less than 20,000 people for the whole planet. They don't fit in, much of their tech is illegal or incompatible with the rest of the galaxy, and they stick out like sore thumbs, as 99.9% of the populace has ident tattoos, which they can no longer control. Only the President has the ability to transform, because of his broken control. He is essentially immortal because of it. (natural causes) Their space military are stolen ships with damaged AI's. Espionage is crap. VIPS Commander Gen (generic): A quick learner, he tries his best to speak the truth and is usually charitable. He does not suffer fools, and can be insulting. Ariel Kosch: The second in command and lover of Gen, she is a free born. She is also an accomplished doctor and runs Luna colony. Basicly the Them, used to be humans, who turned themselves into ships. As they weren't AI's, but people nothing could be done about them and their robotic underlings, who were dumb enough to avoid being called intelligent AI's. Alternate Sol, is a near match for the original, except earth II is the second planet, and Zeus is not a gas giant. They still cannot control their transformations, except for Gen.

Just to note, I added a bunch of characters, and added a few flavory things to my nation sheet.
So...now you know.

Very poorly actually.
Currently I'm looking at a three week No Internet vacation of sorts. Late June to a couple of weeks into July. After that, I swear, we'll get this thing going for realz.
