There has been some brief comments on TTNE on usenet news that basically
agree about the similarities. I have a hard time putting my finger on them,
but they are there.

I asked Fabian about it and according to him, they ("Spel & Sa'nt") buy
directly from you via airmail.
One thing that I have noticed now in the combat chapter that give strange
effects is the environment rules on gravity (p308). As I interpret them,
a slug thrower would get a close range of infinite in zero gee. I'm leaning
towards using the Jump/Throw table on page 190 instead of local gravity
when it comes to determining ranges and safe speeds (but not carrying
loads).
