Dalek command ship
Dalek command ships, also known as Dalek base ships, were used as bases by the Daleks.
History
In the 26th century, a saucer-shaped Dalek command ship was established on the planet Mazam. It was commanded by a Command Dalek with a complement of 1,000 Daleks and Omega-Units. (COMIC: Abslom Daak... Dalek Killer)
A trio of Dalek ships, including a command ship, pursued Taiyin's space yacht to Draconia only to be destroyed by Abslom Daak before he touched down on the planet. Star Tigers)
During the Dalek invasion of Mutter's Spiral, the Imperial Command Ship was the flagship of the Dalek fleet and travelled to Lopra Minor for Project Infinity. (AUDIO: Project Infinity)
A lone Dalek command ship was signalled by Professor Martez to help him birth his "Mutant Daleks" engineered from humans. In response, the Daleks diverted an asteroid to strike Red Rocket Rising in a failed attempt to destroy Professor Martez' experiments, which were seen as "inferior". This ship landed on the planet. The Daleks planned to use the command ship to impact the Mutant Dalek base and evacuated. Its neutronic power source would ensure total destruction and the Daleks would kill the remaining humans on Red Rocket Rising. Tom Cardwell was able to shut down the power source with his fission batteries. The command ship then crash-landed off course from the base. (AUDIO: Blood of the Daleks)
In the first year of the Last Great Time War, Davros' command ship was lost when it flew into the jaws of the Nightmare Child. It had been believed by all at the time that Davros was killed in this incident. However, Dalek Caan, a survivor of the Time War, used a temporal shift to break the time-lock and save Davros from the doomed vessel. (TV: The Stolen Earth)
