At the time the supplement was written, in 1979, the context of Traveller was not defined yet, except some allusions to Imperium slipped into Book 4 - Mercenary and others. The context of this supplement thus introduces several elements which will be incompatible with the OTU, like the presence of hyper-technological artifacts of the First Empire (of 300 years ago), a sect of psionic wizards named Klathans, a sect devoted to the intellectual development named the Guild of the Logicians, a group of fanatics of the First Empire named the Red Dresses, the interstellar guilds, etc.
