Marathon and Escape Velocity: Nova

An interesting little thought fragment. Go the the Mjolnir system in EV: Nova and dock with Nil'a Mjolnir. Here is the description of the station you will see:

"During the brief war with the Colonial Council, the Polaris were saved by the timely intervention of the Vell-os, and also through the actions of one of the Council's cyborg-soldiers. Little is known about that man, other than part of his unit designation - Mjolnir. Apparantly, he destroyed a piece of new technology that would have ensured victory over the Polaris. It is worthy of note that he is the only non-Polaris soldier to be remembered by the Polaris warrior-caste with respect, although none of them seem to be prepared to tell you exactly why."

A cyborg soldier with a designation of "Mjolnir" who posseses the capacity for exceptional feats in war. Where have we seen something like that before?

I'm not implying a direct connection, but I think its something that any long-time Marathon fan would recognize and smile at.
