[[Sontaran]]s are the ultimate warriors – so they believe – and the [[Last Great Time War|Time War]] the ultimate conflict. Denied that glory by [[Skaro]] and [[Gallifrey]] alike, General [[Fesk]] of the [[Eighth Sontaran Battle Fleet]] employs a dangerous strategy to draw both sides to the planet [[Rovidia]] and prove his forces worthy… | |||
Meanwhile, the War Doctor leads a rescue mission, aided by [[Rovidian]] street-urchin [[Kalan]]. Neither Daleks nor Time Lords expect the Sontarans to be so fearsome a foe, until they uncover the secret of the [[Eternity Cage]]. | |||
