The Cybermen are a race of artificially modified human or near-humans, commanded by Cyber-Lords. By an unknown point in time, they are one of the major powers in space, possessing at least twelve fleets.
History
By some point in the 52nd century[1], possibly the 51st century, the Cybermen's Twelfth Cyber Legion was well-known to monitor everything within 20,000 light years of the Church base Demons Run. The Eleventh Doctor and Rory Williams invaded the Legion and destroyed part of it in order to blackmail the Cybermen into giving them information on the whereabouts of Amy Pond - and as a message to the abductors.
The Church's rank and file were intimidated by the Doctor's action. (DW: A Good Man Goes to War)
Behind the Scenes
- Like the Adventure Games Cybermen, they have visual elements of the Pete's World Cybermen but the trappings & fleet of the Mondas Cybermen. Director Peter Hoar has explicitly stated that these are "different Cybermen" to the Pete's World faction as they don't have Cybus Industries logos[2], but we don't know for certain yet if they have any relation to the Mondasian or Adventure Games Cybermen. (In real life, they look the same because the suits are being reused)
