*In a rather humorous error, Reach's moon [[Csodaszarvas]] can be seen in two places at once on this map: behind Reach in its traditional positioning and towards the back of the map above the nebula.
*The glassed Reach seems to share the same fiery effects of the [[Kill Ball|Killball]].

*When one watches the space battle outside the map, they will notice [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshees]] and [[YSS-1000 Sabre|Sabres]] fighting each other. Upon closer inspection, one will see that the Banshees are not [[Type-27 Exoatmospheric Multi-role Fighter|Space Banshees]], but regular atmospheric Banshees.

*There appears to be a third moon of Reach, which is strange as all official material states that there are only two. [[Csodaszarvas]] and [[Turul]] can be seen just above Reach, while this moon can be seen in the glass roof of Center Core.
