Blinovitch?[[edit source]]
Is it reasonable that the Dalek gunstick's discharge is related to the Blinovitch limitation effect?
-In NSA: Touched by an Angel, Blinovitch limitation fields were characterized by arcs of blue light, electromagnetic interference (enough to short out all of the appliances and electronics in penthouse and cause a house fire), and physical contact with one could leave one charred.
This appears to match the physical description of a Dalek's weapon discharge:
-The beam is normally blue -It's ability to conduct through metal and water suggests electromagnetic properties -Victims may be left charred
Being a time-capable species, the Daleks would know about the Blinovitch limitation effect, and their time-travel related power source seems like it would be compatible.
Also, being a species with the technological might to challenge the Time Lords (who wield weapons that delete people's time streams from the universe), it seems unlikely that they would be using technology as comparatively primitive as plasma. A Blinovitch limitation weapon firing time energy seems more appropriately "timey-wimey" to engage the Time Lords in a time war, as a weapon firing time energy may also have properties that affect peoples' time streams that have not been explored. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.205.81.11 (talk).
- It's certainly possible, but unless there's something more explicit in a valid source, we can't say so here. —Josiah Rowe talk to me 01:48, June 19, 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry, I wasn't trying to get this idea on the main page. I just wanted to see if my opinion seemed reasonable to other whovians. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.205.81.11 (talk).
Earlier Dalek gunsticks[[edit source]]
In Classic Who, is there any explaination for the 'petals' that expand and retract in the gunstick when it's shooting? SID'gingerfool'RAT - ☎🔎 |📂|📝 21:51, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
