I'd like to make a time traveling member of the GRN who, during the last stages of the joint Council and Sirian campaign against the last vestiges of the GRN several hundred years into the future, managed to escape from a Council attack on the research facility on which he was working.
During his daring escape, he manages to grab a well preserved museum relic (a long obsolete model of a GRN (a slightly less obsolete version of the council) gunboat, which the local commandant had kept in restored condition as a "classic muscle ship" to catch the attention of the ladies, and finds himself in the current time period Gallia.
Due to his gratuitous amounts of exposure to the cheap and cheesy science fiction holovids of his day, the time traveler believes that to cause any deviation from his "established" time line would be to spell doom for himself in a classic example of abortion via never happening. As such, the time traveler must, despite his horrendous knowledge of history, attempt to assure that the Council and the Sirians win the war so that things remain more or less the same, with the Council and Sirius ultimately triumphing against the GRN so that he may live (or so he believes).
Unfortunately, the traveler accidentally kills his own grand uncle who, in a strange turn of events, was destined to also be his grandfather (apparently Gallia has its own version of the deep south). Time irrevocably altered, the traveler unknowingly emerges as a product of a time line that never happens, but with every reason to ensure that the GRN loses the war.
I dont see how killing his grand uncle would change the entire course of history, (but it might) come to that, how DOES he kill his grand uncle? And how does he travel through time?
Otherwise... fine, if you want.

If not, er........bad idea, going back in time.
Either way, not the best idea. If your leaving Disco, sure. But for an RP story...should be more vague.
I only jumped about two years within my story I wont say Goodbye, but nothing changes, or has,a chanxe to, change the timeline.
The guy jumps back in time from when the Council and Sirius team up to destroy the GRN. As a member of the GRN, he jumps back in time without thinking in an attempt to escape the attack, but then realizes that he has entered a time period during which either the GRN or the Council can come out of the war victorious. While he is a member of the GRN (of the future, that is), he believes that in order to have been born, similar conditions to his own history must be matched. As his history involves the GRN getting defeated, he has every reason to fight the GRN to ensure that the Council comes out on top, and allows for himself to be born (though this logic is based on little more than the cheesy science fiction movies he watched for fun).
On his way to this time period though, he unknowingly kills his own grandparent which would, according to back to the future logic, wipe him out of existence (it doesn't, showing everyone reading in on his story that time isn't fixed, and that also, his time line never happens which means that anything is up for grabs - to eliminate any potential for metagaming.)
All in all, it allows for an alternative future GRN pilot to pretend to be a Council pilot from his past (something akin to an American being sucked back in time and being forced through certain circumstances to fight on the side of the British during the Revolutionary War).

Implying Gallia would lose. Really, at this point, the 4 houses are so beaten up that Gallia already steam rolled Kusari, is ready to make Bretonia beg for mercy, and it's established that Gallia's Navy can easily fend off 3 Houses.

Yeah, it's too late to do anything.
Remember, it's his future timeline , not our current one. This timeline cannot be predicted.
