* ''Trapped in the Time Corridor'', an illustration for the [[30th Anniversary Calendar]], depicts the capture of the [[Fifth Doctor]]'s [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] by the Daleks, consisting of the [[Golden Emperor]], the [[Black Dalek]], the [[Red Dalek]], [[Red Dalek's subordinate|a red-domed Dalek]], and [[grey Dalek]] [[Dalek drone|drone]]s.
* ''[[The Dalek Tapes]]'', a feature in the ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'' DVD, has golden Daleks as members of the [[Dalek Council|Supreme Council]], followed in rank by black (Dalek Supreme), partially black, silver (scientific corps), and grey. ''[[The Dalek Handbook]]'' states that the Black Daleks used to be the highest command until the civil war, and a Supreme was always taken from their ranks; after the war, the Supremes and their Council were gold-and-black, the Black tier was replaced with the golden Commanders, and the standard Daleks were grey-black, with a group commander picked from their ranks.

* According to the [[T:IU|non-narrative source]] ''[[The Dalek Handbook]]'', [[Black Dalek]]s acted as [[Supreme Dalek|Supreme Controllers]] during planetary invasions and other missions of high importance, and were part of a tier of Dalek commanders. Dalek workers and soldiers were distinguished by their silver casings. Following the [[41st century]] [[Dalek Civil War]], the hierarchy was changed with the silver Daleks and the Black Daleks being replaced by grey Daleks and Gold Daleks respectively. This new version of the Dalek Empire would back and attempt to overwrite their own history beginning with the [[Time Paradox Incident]] and [[Operation Divide and Conquer]]. The [[Type V Dalek|silver Daleks]] seen in the [[Exxilon Gambit]] were [[27th century]]-native Daleks who were subsumed into future Dalek forces.
