Celebrate!

It's official! The Daleks are coming back after all. We've received the following press release:

Mal Young, BBC Controller of Continuing Drama Series and Tim Hancock, agent for the Terry Nation Estate announced today (Wednesday, August 4) that the Daleks will return in the new series of Doctor Who which is currently in production for transmission on BBC One in 2005.

Hancock says: "I am absolutely delighted that the Terry Nation Estate and the BBC have been able to reach agreement on terms for the use of the Daleks in the new Doctor Who series. We look forward to working closely with the production team in the forthcoming months."


Huzzah! It wouldn't be Dr. Who without the Daleks!

Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to create a balanced and workable Dalek presence for Traveller. :-)

Baddies From the Core.

The Daleks are TL 17/GTL 13 war machines left over from a galactic conflict eons earlier. I'd change their programing a bit.. They are instructed to exterminate all intelligent life except for their creators. Alas the creators are extinct, and the Daleks are too hard-wired to realize this.

This forces them to do something more than destroy planets.. the Creators want those worlds for their Glorious Empire!

But everyone else? EXTERMINATE!

Would your Daleks be like the "late model" Dr. Who ones. With limited CG so stairs won't stop them?

Nah. Real Daleks don't climb stairs, they level the building.
