Pre-Time War

Dalek War Machines, led by the Golden Emperor, invade Earth's solar system in the year 2400, beginning with the conquest of Venus. (PROSE: Break-through)
While the Golden Emperor ostensibly negotiates peace terms, Daleks based on the Moon attempt to destroy Earth but are thwarted.
After two centuries of peace, the Golden Emperor forces Earth to return the Daleks' confiscated weaponry so they can stop a rogue planet, which is later traced to the Mechonoids. (COMIC: The World That Waits) He then vows to conquer Earth and the other planets.
Lee Sullivan's artwork depicts the Golden Emperor. A Special Weapons Dalek appears. Skaro exists. It is 3000 years after the 26th century according to AUDIO: The Judas Gift, which is Bev Tarrant's native time.
The Daleks are ruled by a Dalek Emperor - depicted on an unused cover as the Golden Emperor.

A Dalek Emperor oversees the planning for Operation Divide and Conquer.
The Daleks, led by the Dalek Emperor, ally with the Cybermen in a gambit to destroy the Earth in 1988 by sabotaging a peace conference. This plot is thwarted by the Sixth Doctor.
The Daleks do not recognise the Seventh Doctor. They are Imperial Daleks on the cover. The Emperor is not Davros and appears to be the one from Evil of the Daleks.
Davros, operating alongside a golden Dalek Emperor, leads an invasion of Earth in the year 2254, which is thwarted by the Seventh Doctor and Ace. He appears with an organic hand, placing this before Revelation of the Daleks. Davros has stolen a Time Ring, which he has possibly used to travel to an earlier period of Dalek history.
