Publisher's Summary
The Doctor and his travelling companion, retired army officer Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart, take a random trip in the TARDIS - and land on the planet Skaro. The Doctor helped the Thals to defeat the Daleks years ago, so he is surprised to find the Thal city under Dalek occupation. He determines to help them again, but what is the Daleks' purpose in keeping the Thals alive? Does it have anything to do with the Daleks' mythical creator, named in their teachings as Davros?
Cast
- The Doctor - David Warner
- Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart - Nicholas Courtney
- Davros - Terry Molloy
- The Daleks - Nicholas Briggs
- Nadel - Amy Pemberton
- Gillen - Sarah Douglas
- Delt - Jeremy James
- Toloc - Christopher Heywood
- The Quatch - Jeremy James & Jason Haigh-Ellery
References
- The Thousand Year War and Davros' history are different (to the regular timeline), most notably that the war was considerably shorter than a thousand years and started closer to the end. The Quatch's involvement - and the Quatch - don't seem to caused by any difference in the Doctor's timeline.
- The Doctor uses a sonic screwdriver at one point.
- The Brigadier gets food from TARDIS's food machine.
- The Quatch are from another dimension.
- The Daleks mobilize several saucers to attack the Quatch.
- The Dalek's gunsticks are detachable and can fire independent of the Daleks.
- The Thals remember the Doctor.
Notes
To be added
Continuity
- Masters of War is the sequel to DWU: Sympathy for the Devil.
- The Doctor's absence from the events of DW: Genesis of the Daleks have meant the Daleks abandoned their creator instead of taking the chance to exterminate him; the Daleks from The Daleks are retroactively made out to be a second batch, programmed with feelings of mercy and pity to ensure loyalty. All other Dalek stories are said to be caused by the original Daleks, here called Renegade Daleks.
- The Brigadier fought three Daleks on Earth, a reference to partial events from DW: Day of the Daleks.
- The Doctor mentions having met the Daleks several times previous to his encounter these encounters are: DW: The Daleks, The Dalek Invasion of Earth, The Chase, The Daleks' Master Plan, The Power of the Daleks and The Evil of the Daleks (as this Doctor's timeline diverged following the events of DW: The War Games).
Timeline
- Masters of War occurs after: Sympathy for the Devil
- Masters of War occurs before: to be added
