The Time Destructor was destroyed upon activation ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Dalek Problem (novel)|The Dalek Problem]]'') when its taranium core was exhausted. The loss was a devastating blow for the Dalek Empire ([[TV]]: ''[[The Daleks' Master Plan (TV story)|The Daleks' Master Plan]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Mutation of Time (novelisation)|The Mutation of Time]]'') and kicked off the [[Great War (The Evil of the Daleks)|Great War]], which brought the Daleks to the brink of destruction.

([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Evil of the Daleks (novelisation)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'') During a [[Multi-Doctor event]], the [[Second Doctor]] and his companions briefly caused an [[Harvesting of Urbinia|alternate timeline]] where the Time Destructor plot succeeded, though the Second Doctor quickly restored history to its proper course. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Daughter of the Gods (audio story)|Daughter of the Gods]]'') During the Time War, the Time Lords believed the Time Destructor Incident was proof that the Daleks were willing to do anything to ensure their total victory. Unwilling to let their foes re-create such a powerful and indiscriminate weapon, the Time Lords tried to locate any remaining taranium deposits to stop the development of new Time Destructors, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)|Dalek Combat Training Manual]]'') only for both sides of the War to use Time Destructors as the conflict dragged on.

Amid the Great War, the Daleks discovered a means of time travel that did not need taranium, although it was made possible only by accident due to [[human]] experiments in [[1866]] that the Daleks managed to exploit. Equipped with this power, the Emperor arranged for the capture of the Second Doctor in [[Operation Human Factor]], ordering him to use the TARDIS to spread the so-called "[[Dalek factor]]" throughout Earth's entire history. However, the Daleks were then distracted and heavily set back by a [[Dalek Civil War|civil war]] instigated by the Doctor, who had introduced a "[[human factor]]" into [[Humanised Dalek|a number of Daleks]].
