Remembrance of the Daleks (novelisation): Difference between revisions

* ''Remembrance of the Daleks'' is considered to be a significant novelisation by many fans, and the precursor to the [[Virgin New Adventures]]. It introduced a character called [[Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart (Remembrance of the Daleks)|Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart]], an ancestor of [[Kadiatu Lethbridge-Stewart|the character]] who later appears in the Virgin novels. It also includes flashbacks to ancient [[Gallifrey]] which introduce "[[the Other|the other]]", the mysterious third member of the [[Triumvirate]] with [[Rassilon]] and [[Omega]]. The Virgin novels would later change "the other" into "the Other" and hint at his connection to the Doctor.

* The [[Renegade Dalek]] faction made use of ECM ('''E'''lectronic '''C'''ounter-'''M'''easure) pods in their defensive positions. These devices locked onto the casings of any [[Imperial Dalek]]s who came into range and infiltrated their systems, sabotaging the life-support software so the [[Kaled mutant]] within drowned in its own nutrient fluid.

* The Doctor mentions the Movellan War to Ace, Rachel and Allison referring to the Movellans as androids, just as nasty as the Daleks but more attractive to look at. It is suggested by the Doctor that the [[Movellan virus]] fragmented the Daleks and left them in isolated factions.   

* Ace and the Doctor encounter the [[Special Weapons Dalek]] as it and the [[Imperial Dalek]]s attack the [[Renegade Dalek]]s in Ratcliffe's Yard.
