Supreme Commander Fun Facts

• Although Quantum Gates exist in space in the SupCom fiction, sending ships through them is exceptionally dangerous. That is why the three factions employ land-based Quantum Gates.
• The Mavor is named after Lead Programmer Jon Mavor.
• The Wagner is named after Producer Gary Wagner.
• Before recording the VO for Supreme Commander, all of the dialogue was vetted through what Editorial Manager William Harms called “SupCom on Broadway”. Volunteers from GPG acted out all of the speaking parts, and Harms and members of the design team took notes and made edits based on how the lines sounded. One of the sessions was videotaped, but to protect the acting-challenged, it will never be released.
• ‘Scathis’ is an online handle used by Lead Content Engineer John Comes.
• The map “Ian's Cross” was named by Terrain Artist Ian Walker.
• The map “Finn’s Revenge” is named after Creative Director Chris Taylor’s youngest son.
• GPGNet was originally a working title, and we were sure it would be replaced at some point. There were dozens of suggestions for new names, but the original, "temp" name stuck.
• The map “Sung Island” is named after Units Modeler Sung Campbell.
• Several of the minor characters are named after friends of the design team (e.g., Sweeney, Elliott, Stensen).
• The character President Riley is named after Creative Director Chris Taylor’s son.
• The character Mach was originally named Janus, which was changed to Mercury, and finally to Mach.
• The character Toth was originally named Ochiba, which was changed to Camille, and finally to Toth. (The name Toth is an homage to comic book artist Alex Toth, who passed away in 2006.)
• Marxon’s first name is Jaran.
• The Cybrans were originally called the Recyclers.
