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.
  • Syp The Mighty's voice for Red is carried over from BattleDudes for the premiere of this series, with the explanation for the change to Speakonia being explained in the following episode.
• 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 Emery Eden 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.
