Army: Difference between revisions

The first known [[Dalek]] army was assembled fifty [[cycle]]s after the [[Thal-Dalek battle]]. Having survived the battle, the [[Dalek Supreme (Return to Skaro)|Dalek Supreme]] manufactured hundreds of [[Dalek War Machine]] [[casing]]s and led its revived army against the [[Thal City]]. When the First Doctor took control of the ionising towers, the Dalek army retreated and was destroyed when [[Ian Chesterton]] overloaded the power feeds of the [[Dalek City]].

([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Daleks (TV story)|Planet of the Daleks]]'', [[WC]]: ''[[The Sentinel of the Fifth Galaxy (webcast)|The Sentinel of the Fifth Galaxy]]'') In the Last Great Time War, the Daleks began boosting their overworked army, converting conquered [[Dalek of human origin|humans into Daleks]] at an accelerated rate to serve as cannon fodder and harvesting versions of themselves from alternate realities to serve as shock troopers, creating the [[Skaro Degradations]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Engines of War (novel)|Engines of War]]'') Numbering at a "billion billion" units, the Dalek army attacked [[Gallifrey]] on the last day of the war, destroying itself in its own crossfire when the planet disappeared. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'') When the [[New Dalek Paradigm]] was raised, they used the production facilities of [[Goth (planet)|Goth]] to quickly build a galaxy-conquering army. [[Historian]]s who studied the Dalek race believed that the New Paradigm had deployed the totality of its army during the [[Siege of Trenzalore]] to prevent the return of the Time Lords and as a consequence, its destruction at the hands of [[Eleventh Doctor]] had been the final defeat of the Daleks.
