I prefer the Red Dwarf approach. No aliens, just humans, modified humans, and scary things created by humans.

No. What have the poor innocent aliens done to deserve being confrunted with us? Twisted

On a more serious note, I don't think aliens would bring anything to Eve, so please, no aliens.

I appreciate the effort but these jokes work better against the minmatar.

Example:
Just look at the minmatar... Alien enough for me!
*all my minmatar slaves nervously laugh and nod in agreement*

Which implies that there aren't worlds where the Minmatar keep Amarrian slaves, purely as revenge even though culturally it was never really Minmatar style.
As well as schismatic, isolated Amarr groups whose slaves have taken over and the populations have mixed to make a group distinct and foreign to both.
Indeed.
As for aliens, deep time is a terrible inhibitor on sci-fi based conflict stories. Two lifeforms meeting and being within millions of years of each other in development or evolution is akin to a razor thrown into the ocean drifting to the bottom and landing edge-on against another.
