So...A group of Russians (maybe led by a future monk from Siberia named Rasputin?) unearths alien technology (a Martian canister that didn't land in England during the original invasion), keeping the Bolsheviks from taking power in 1917 and eventually affecting the outcome of the future. Hmm. Suppose the alien tech eventually led to the creation of time travel and anyone who's watched the Back to the Future movies knows how bad time travel can be.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> Continuing with the time manipulation idea, events alter around the LXG that only they notice. That is til the time traveller from 'The Time Machine' arrives asking for help. The LXG seems to be immune to the time flux due to the McGuffin Axiom (similar to the Marty McFly Rule).On the other hand, the alien tech might just create stupendous advances in Russian tech like metal that's stronger than steel but lighter than tinfoil, death rays, cannisters of black powder, VCRs that blink "1:00" for Daylight Savings Time, pre sliced bread, the Internet (before Al Gore!), etc. Er.. you get the idea.</blockquote>
