Dalek Project

The Dalek Project was conceived by the Daleks to study human strategy and determine their weaknessess. They did this by travelling through time and analysing how humans made war throughout history. Three ships equipped with new time-drive systems were used.

History
Operating throughout centuries of human history, bronze Daleks engaged primitive men armed with clubs and rocks, Roman soldiers, armoured knights with swords and shields, siege operators from the protection of stone fortifications, men on horseback with swords, and men with guns.

However, while in the process of traveling forwards through time, they were caught in a vortex storm and arrived on Earth in 1908. Survey Ship Sigma and Survey Ship Delta collided and the latter was destroyed in Siberia. The other ship Sigma managed to make it to Kent. The crew of the ship hid until 1915 when they could study the First World War, intending to upload their data to Dalek Central Command. The Eleventh Doctor foiled the Daleks' plans, thus ending the Project. However Survey Ship Epsilon and its crew were on special duties, abandoned the Dalek Project in the process.
