I'd like to know how the Cybermen managed to improve themselves to the point of Nightmare In Silver. I mean, as the Tenth Doctor said to John Lumic, they're stripping themselves from imagination, and that's what they need to progress. However, with their wars with the Human Empire, they've improved themselves gradually to the point they became almost invincible to humans. How did they even manage to do so without imagination? --X29 15:39, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

Simple. They used logic. They saw strategies and parts that became a weaknesss,and upgraded themselves to fix this weakness. Thats what was shown in nightmare in silver, where for example one cyberman goes in the moat and gets electrocuted, but then upgrades, allowing it to cross the moat, and the other cyberman have it transmitted to them, allowing them to do the same. The only difference is that that was the final evolution of that power up to this point, before it probably would have been unique to each cyberman as a theory.--Coop3 18:39, August 14, 2014 (UTC)
