If [[PROSE]]: ''[[Mission to the Known (short story)|Mission to the Known]]'' does indeed refer to it as the ''Dalek Time Commander'', I think we should refer to it as such. It's a more specific name than just ''Time Commander'', and supposedly is used in an actual story. As I don't own Mission to the Known, however, it would be nice if somebody could properly verify this.

If PROSE: Mission to the Known does indeed refer to it as the Dalek Time Commander, I think we should refer to it as such. It's a more specific name than just Time Commander, and supposedly is used in an actual story. As I don't own Mission to the Known, however, it would be nice if somebody could properly verify this.
