Basic page 182.
"Roll against
Brawling to hit with a punch, or
Brawling-2 to hit with a kick.
Brawling can also replace DX when
you attack with
teeth, claws, horns, or
other "natural weapons.""
Bold is basically strikers.
Low Tech page 71.
"[5] Attack receives damage bonuses for whichever of
Boxing (p. B182), Brawling (p. B182), or Karate (p. B203)
is used to deliver it – exactly as if it were an unarmed
strike. Claws don’t improve damage with such weaponassisted
blows."
This is a note for the weapon Bladed hand, which does swing damage.
I would say yes to that pyramid article falling under what I put in bold. After all if you are using that article then you are not using the normal "strikers" from basic. Either way it would be
fine for me as a GM.

They do, talent assists in any rolls needed for the abilities with the PM, that includes attack rolls to use. A few examples of this can be found in GURPS powers and psionic powers I think.
