Armour: Difference between revisions

[[File:The Alliance.jpg|thumb|The [[Pandorica Alliance]] was composed of several races who were distinguished by the armour they wore. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'')]]

[[Ashildr]] recalled penetrating armour during the [[Battle of Agincourt]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Woman Who Lived (TV story)|The Woman Who Lived]]'')

As the [[Ninth Doctor]] explained, [[Dalek mutant]]s resided within their [[casing]]s, which served as battle armour. ([[TV]]: ''[[Dalek (TV story)|Dalek]]'') According to the [[Seventh Doctor]], this armour was composed of bonded-[[polycarbide]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'') As the [[Third Doctor]] noted, the [[Dalek]]s' armour acted as a [[shield]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Daleks (TV story)|Planet of the Daleks]]'')

[[Missy]] used a [[dark star alloy]] [[brooch]] to penetrate a Dalek casing, noting that it went through armour plating like "a [[knife]] through [[people]]". ([[TV]]: ''[[The Witch's Familiar (TV story)|The Witch's Familiar]]'')

As [[Yvonne Hartman]] observed, the [[Cybermen]] of [[Pete's World]] [[cyber-conversion|converted]] [[human]]s by removing their [[brain]]s and placing them in a [[suit]] of armour, ([[TV]]: ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]'') which was known as a [[Cyber-body|cyber-suit]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Real Time (audio story)|Real Time]]'', [[TV]]: ''[[The Age of Steel (TV story)|The Age of Steel]]'') [[Mercy Hartigan]] referred to these Cybermen as her "[[knight]]s in shining armour, quite literally." ([[TV]]: ''[[The Next Doctor (TV story)|The Next Doctor]]'')

Aboard a [[Colony ship (World Enough and Time)|Mondasian colony ship]], the [[Mondasian]] [[colonist]]s initially lacked [[gun]]s that could shoot through the armour of the advanced Cybermen. However, [[Nardole]] was able to modify the Mondasian's [[rifle]]s to provide a defence. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Doctor Falls (TV story)|The Doctor Falls]]'')

As explained by the [[Eleventh Doctor|Eleventh]] and [[Twelfth Doctor]]s, the [[Ice Warrior]]s constructed and wore bio-mechanical [[survival armour]] for protection so they could exist in the freezing [[cold]] of their [[homeworld]], [[Mars]]. The former characterised them as becoming bio-mechanoid [[cyborg]]s, while the latter observed "the [[creature]] within is at one with its [[carapace]]." ([[TV]]: ''[[Cold War (TV story)|Cold War]]'', ''[[Empress of Mars (TV story)|Empress of Mars]]'')

As noted by the Eleventh Doctor, a sudden increase in [[temperature]], such as being struck by a [[cattle prod]], sent the armour haywire. ([[TV]]: ''[[Cold War (TV story)|Cold War]]'')

[[Sontaran]]s wore a distinctive armour which [[Jingo Linx]] identified as [[Sontaran space armour]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Time Warrior (TV story)|The Time Warrior]]'', ''[[The Two Doctors (TV story)|The Two Doctors]]'')

The [[Sea Devil|Sea Devils]] of [[Elite Group One]] including [[Sauvix]] wore samurai-themed armour. ([[TV]]: ''[[Warriors of the Deep (TV story)|Warriors of the Deep]]'') More Sea Devils wore armour. ([[TV]]: ''[[Legend of the Sea Devils (TV story)|Legend of the Sea Devils]]''; [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Seas of Titan (audio story)|The Seas of Titan]]'')

[[Silurian Hunter|Silurian Hunters]] wore armour. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Hungry Earth (TV story)|The Hungry Earth]]|[[Cold Blood (TV story)|Cold Blood]], [[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]], [[A Good Man Goes to War (TV story)|A Good Man Goes to War]]''; [[GAME]]: ''[[The Eternity Clock (video game)|The Eternity Clock]];'' [[COMIC]]: ''[[Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)|Supremacy of the Cybermen]]'')

[[Last Great Time War|Time Lord soldiers]] wore [[crimson]] armour over [[maroon]] uniforms. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Last Day (TV story)|The Last Day]], [[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]], [[Hell Bent (TV story)|Hell Bent]];'' [[COMIC]]: ''[[Ambush (comic story)|Ambush]], [[Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)|Supremacy of the Cybermen]], [[The Clockwise War (comic story)|The Clockwise War]]'')  

The [[Harrigain]] wore crimson armour. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Devil in the Mist (audio story)|Devil in the Mist]]''; [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Bidding War (comic story)|The Bidding War]]'')
