Quote: "Additional inconsistencies exist such Luke having to recharge his lightsaber (which is revealed in other EU sources as having a lifelong power source)." Mace recharges his lightsaber in Shatterpoint, but that was after it'd been used extensively. -LtNOWIS 01:23, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Novel's relation to ESB and Jedi?

This novel has many of the same elements later used or planned to be used in ESB, such as Mimban == Dagobah, and the rebel base, the crash site, and a neutral planet all in the same system (Hoth, Bespin, and Dagobah were originally all in the same solar system, in Leigh Brackett's version of the story).

In regards Jedi, the furry, primative Coway effectively battle the Stormtroopers, much as the Ewoks did on Endor. Also, the "Yuzzim" were in an early version of the ROTJ script, mentioned in (iirc) _The Art of Return of the Jedi._

Are there other relations, and would it be worth putting these in the article?
