==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*This series is technically a spinoff of an [[Spite Box]]'s older series, ''[[The Shadowplayer Show]]'', with the [[Protocol Robots]] (sans [[Unit P|Pink]]) debuting in that series.
*This series spawned two spinoffs in the forms of ''[[WarGames]]'' and ''Misguided'', with the former being part of the ''[[Guard Duty]]'' continuity and disconnected from this series.
**[[Syp The Mighty]]'s voice for [[Unit R|Red]] is carried over from ''The Shadowplayer Show'' for the [[Boss|premiere of this series]], with the explanation for the change to Speakonia being explained in [[Upgrade|the following episode]].
*''WarGames'' reveals the fates of the central characters from ''[[Major Malfunction]]'', an older ''Halo''-based machinima series with a similar premise to ''[[Guard Duty]]'' that featured music from [[Revoltge]] and was co-created by [[Syp The Mighty]].
*While considered a side series, ''WarGames'' provides much of the world-building that episodes created afterward would rely on, such as ''[[Classic Season 2]]'' and ''[[Season 1]]''. 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 [[HQ|UNSC Cosmo]], the [[UNSC]]-owned frigate that commands [[Outpost Black Out]] and other outposts as well as fleshing out its [[Ignacio Dominguez|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.
*Despite being produced as part of ''[[Guard Duty Classic]]'', Syp and Revoltge still consider this series to be canonical to the [[Guard Duty|main series continuity]].
