Behind the scenes

 * The only three broadcasts involving one Unit reinforcing another mention the numbers 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, and 42, likely referencing 'The Numbers' from the television show Lost. The broadcasts are: "Unit 4 reinforce Unit 8," "Unit 15 reinforce Unit 16 at defense point Sigma Delta," and "Unit 23 await reinforcement from Unit 42!"
 * One of the messages is a reference to the British sci-fi series, Doctor Who: "Bravo Bravo Charlie, the Doctor is coming." Bravo Bravo Charlie is 'BBC' in the phonetic alphabet, sharing a name with the organization which airs Doctor Who in the UK and other countries.
 * Two messages have references to the film Aliens, but this only happens with the Wild Wasteland trait: "Game over, man! Game over!" and "Christ! They're coming out of the damn walls!"
