Trivia

  • This series is a standalone followup to Syp The Mighty's older series, BattleDudes, with the training robots (sans Pink) first appearing in that series.
  • WarGames reveals the fates of the central characters from Major Malfunction, an older Halo-based machinima series that Syp directed and co-wrote with a similar premise to Guard Duty that featured music from Revoltge.
  • 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 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 Trooper without knowing who he is.
    • Molotov and Cocktail, two assassins assisting in the Brigadier's investigation.
  • Most of this miniseries occurs between The Point and The Transfer, with its finale occurring after Infinity.
