* The single most significant change between the two stories is the complete excision of [[Voga]], the [[Vogan (Revenge of the Cybermen)|Vogans]] and the [[Vogan Civil War|civil war subplot]] of ''Revenge''. Voga is replaced with a [[gold]]-rich [[asteroid]], the Vogans by a lost tribe of [[Colony|colonists]] who inhabit the asteroid. The tribe plays a far smaller role than the Vogans do in ''Revenge''. Much of the action resultantly takes place aboard ''Nerva Beacon''.
