Uncovering the existence of the COS could be an interesting plot point.

Your idea could be a far more realistic, tragic and entertaining love story than the manga was. The destruction of his village is indeed a good starting point for his fusion with Tyrant. You could also have the Tyrant whisper in his head, trying to corrupt him or make him ask for more power. Mine could than be used a his link to remain sane and keep himself in check.

Personally I even find 27 years far to long. That makes most character in their late forties. That's not entertaining to read or really a good age to keep fighting and create engaging battles. I would only go about 4-7 years into the future. The rapid advancement of the Combine (and the resistance) can be explained because of their technology.

You could have the Emperor be an ally of the resistance to save his country from the Combine. He could even be the "face" of the resistance or be an important member thanks to his connections.

Your take on Wave and Kurome story sounds good. Mine is in character and fights for his ideals, Kurome once again fights to "save" her sister. However this time she's right. They also have  a good dynamic as characters, so that's fun. I would make th villain also important, so the head of an oppressive organisation is a good idea. If you write their romance from the start I would keep it  rather similar to the manga.

Esdeath fighting for her own amusement is typical for her. She would also be very glad to see Tatsumi. Esdeath and Mine are both really not the type to share. While the threeseome could be funny, I don't thnk it would end well for those involved, especially Mine (and Tatsumi). However we already have enough weird sexual situations in AGK.
