Trivia

  • While considered a side series, WarGames provides much of the world-building that episodes created afterward would rely on, the final two episodes of Classic Season 2. This series establishes:
    • Outpost Pit Fall, while not referred to by name, is a training facility in which Spartans practice in simulated firefight exercises.
    • The UNSC Cosmo, the UNSC-owned frigate that commands Outpost Black Out and other outposts as well as fleshing out its commander by extension.
    • The Damned, an alliance of various non-human species attempting to awaken a Forerunner called "Starbreaker."
    • Outpost High Ground, another outpost under the UNSC Cosmo's command. This outpost appeared in Major Malfunction, but is placed into the Guard Duty continuity here.
    • The Brigadier, a Spartan and humanity's greatest champion investigating incidents involving Emery Eden without knowing who he is.
    • Molotov and Cocktail, two assassins assisting in the Brigadier's investigation.
