-==Timeline==
+{{BFSTA}}
-Because Ace is portrayed as humourously quoting the [[Cybermen]] when she tells San, "Resistance is futile", and because she's not seen to be surprised at meeting [[the Brigadier]], this story must take place somewhere between [[DW]]: ''[[Battlefield]]'' and [[BFA]]: ''[[Ice Time]]''.
