It was through strenuous, long-term efforts that the Daleks harvested sufficient quantities of taranium to continue to use the time machines and proceed with the research, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Mutation of Time (novelisation)|The Mutation of Time]]'') creating a new, modified version of their timeship design. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)|Dalek Combat Training Manual]]'') Taranium was also the vital component of the [[Time Destructor]], the Daleks' first time-based [[superweapon]] that was the centre of the [[Black Dalek Leader]]'s [[Time Destructor Incident|master plan]] in the year [[4000]] to conquer Earth and its allies. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Daleks' Master Plan (TV story)|The Daleks' Master Plan]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Mutation of Time (novelisation)|The Mutation of Time]]'') The [[Celestial Intervention Agency]] believed that the Daleks had a long term plan that called for an attack Gallifrey sometime after the fall of the Earth. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Dalek Problem (novel)|The Dalek Problem]]'') However, the First Doctor stole the [[taranium core]] to deactivate the Time Destructor, kicking off another chase throughout space and time. During this hunt, the Daleks encountered [[First Monk|an earlier version of the Monk]], whom they briefly allied with before he escaped from their grasp. Ultimately, the Doctor, after losing friends during the chase, turned the Time Destructor against the Daleks, annihilating all infrastructure in place for the planned invasion.

Additionally, the series of events involving the [[Fourth Doctor]] and Romana II's defeat of [[Skagra]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Shada (TV story)|Shada]]'') were prematurely aborted due to the Time Scoop sent after them by Borusa during his gambit for immortality. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'', [[WC]]: ''[[Shada (webcast)|Shada]]'', et al.) Ultimately, theorised to be a result of ensuing temporal instabilities, the adventure unfolded at least four times, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[A Brief History of Time Lords (novel)|A Brief History of Time Lords]]'') with the Eighth Doctor and Romana, who by that point had been elected President of the High Council, at one point "resuming" their adventure. Upon arriving in the Time Lord [[prison]] of [[Shada]], numerous Daleks were imprisoned ([[WC]]: ''[[Shada (webcast)|Shada]]'') despite seemingly having been absent from the cells during the Fourth Doctor's versions of the Shada affair.

Although one account claimed that the [[23rd century Dalek invasion]] of [[Earth]] was merely a simulation created by the energies of the [[Land of Fiction]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Head Games (novel)|Head Games]]'') other accounts implied it to be a real event, with [[Davros]] stealing a [[Davros' Time Ring|sacred Time Ring]] from Gallifrey and allying with the [[Dalek Emperor (Dalek Attack)|current Dalek Emperor]]. After directing the [[Seventh Doctor]] to battle the Dalek invasion, the Time Lords froze Davros in time as punishment, ([[GAME]]: ''[[Dalek Attack (video game)|Dalek Attack]]'') although later accounts indicated he somehow escaped, as evidenced by his later moves against the Time Lords. ([[TV]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remebrance of the Daleks]]'', et. al) Nonetheless, he had come to question whether emotions he despised like fear existed within the Daleks in some form, marking the start of questions about his "children" ([[PROSE]]: ''[[An Incident Concerning the Continual Bombardment of the Phobos Colony (short story)|An Incident Concerning the Continual Bombardment of the Phobos Colony]]'') that he would carry with him into the Time War.
