Story
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... A huge spaceship the size of a planet was on its way through the solar system, with millions of alien colonists on board. Something went wrong, and suddenly the alien spaceship lost control. The cause of the crash is still unknown. But thanks to this accident, Earth got its own satellite - the moon. Most of the aliens died in the crash and only a few of them, who were put into suspended animation, survived. Since there was no one to reanimate them, however, these poor creatures were doomed to eternal sleep. It was a shot from the main gun of the Russian naval cruiser Aurora that heralded the beginning of the October Revolution of 1917. Drunken sailors missed the Tsar's Winter Palace and hit the moon instead. This shot deactivated the aliens' sleep machines and woke up the rest of their crew. A short time later, the remaining aliens realized that there was only one hope for them to survive - the invasion of Earth. While they were preparing for the invasion, they happened to spot a sign in the middle of the largest continent with their telescope. The sign with a few scratched words on it - "Backwoods is a Hub of the Earth". This shabby street sign was located in a tiny, godforsaken Russian village called Backwoods. Naturally, the alien commanders decided to begin the global invasion by conquering such an important strategic point with a mysterious name - Backwoods. Meanwhile, Russia was in the midst of a civil war and the Bolsheviks were trying to liberate this area from the anti-communist forces. Both the front line and the Ural River divided the village of Backwoods in two. One part of the village was somehow controlled by the brave Red Army, but some remnants of the cowardly Whites were still comfortably stationed on the other side. Both parties were tired of fighting each other, and it seemed like they would settle here for a long time. Neither side had any significant advantage and the end of the war was a distinct possibility. If it wasn't for aliens, the situation wouldn't change any time soon...
