War Machines were robots built by the human slaves of the supercomputer WOTAN in a plot to take over the world.
Design and Abilities
The War Machines were boxlike in shape and incapable of advanced movement or any great speed, travelling at a slower pace than an average walking speed. They had two mechanical arms for attacking and a tank-like central track seemingly for movement. They had flashing lights on the front face of the box shape. (DW: The War Machines)
History
The War Machines were robots designed by the super-computer WOTAN and built by its human slaves in its plot to conquer Earth. WOTAN processed the thoughts that machines should become the dominant force on Earth and therefore removal of humans was necessary. Only two War Machines were ever activated.
The first War Machine attacked a group of soldiers and, despite heavy fire, remained undamaged. Before it could kill the remaining soilders and the First Doctor, it shut down as it was incomplete.
The second War Machine was captured by the Doctor and reprogrammed to destroy WOTAN, which it did successfully. (DW: The War Machines)
Centuries in the future, historians of New Jupiter mistakenly believed that the War Machines were designed by the General Post Office to deliver mail. Consequently, replicas of War Machines were part of the Twentieth Century section of EarthWorld. (EDA: EarthWorld)
