There are 5 campaigns in Wargame: European Escalation, one of which is free DLC. Four of them are clearly based of real world events that nearly brought about World War three.

• 1975: Brüder gegen Brüder is based off the Werner Weinhold incident.
• 1981: Dabrowski's Mazurka is based of the Polish Solidarity incident
• 1983: Able Archer is based of the incident of the same name
• 1979: Fatal Error is based off a false warning incident that occurred within NORAD.

Attachment Inside the game's files are graphics from the Game Boy Color remake of Crystalis, which was released 5 months after Elite Forces. From the images, it appears that the title logo for the Crystalis remake would have resembled the original NES version, but the title screen used in the final product is completely different.

The most likely reason for the presence of these images in an unrelated game is because both games were developed by the same Nintendo subsidiary: Nintendo Software Technology.

The songs used in the Madden series are generally heavily censored, with notable examples being the word "gangster" in Pitbull's "Fuego" being censored in Madden NFL 08, and the words "God" and "crime" being censored in Kevin Rudolf's song "Let it Rock" in Madden NFL 11.

Despite this, EA Sports did not censor the word "erection" in B.O.B's song "Created Monster", which was featured in Madden NFL 10.

Attachment North from Seyda Neen, there is an unique encounter in which a Bosmer wizard named Tarhiel will fall from the sky and crash in front of the player, dying from the impact. He holds three Scrolls of Icarian Flight, which temporarily boost the Acrobatics skill by 1000 points, for just 7 seconds. His journal, which mentions him testing them out as an experiment, lies next to his body.

"Icarian" refers to the greek mythological figure Icarus, who shared a similar fate. Whereas Icarus flew too close to the sun and fell as a result, Tarhiel forgot to take the landing from great heights into account. It is, however, possible to save him by casting a large-area Slowfall spell, but his only dialogue is "I don't want to talk about it", suggesting he is too embarrassed by his failure.

The name "Tarhiel" is also a reference, to the University of North Carolina Tar Heels, and his game id (agronian guy) refers to North Carolina's top Agronomy program.

The Atari 7200 port contains text hidden in the game's coding, which reads "MOMMY AND ME ARE ONE." This text is a paraphrasing of a 1985 experiment on the effects of subliminal messages on the unconscious mind, where the phrase "Mommy and I are one" was allegedly effective at raising self-motivation.

Attachment On the Sega CD Special Edition release, there are several codes that will change Jim's head. One of these alternate heads appears to be Donkey Kong's with an arrow through it. This was a stab at the wildly popular Donkey Kong Country, which was perceived as overshadowing the release of Earthworm Jim, despite being released several months later.
