The Dalek Wars short stories were one of the regular features of the magazine Doctor Who: Battles in Time.

Premise and format[]

Each instalment was an account of a famous conflicts in Dalek history, usually formatted as an extract or quotation from an in-universe character's diary or history book.

The stories were illustrated by highly detailed two-page spreads of the battlefield under scrutiny. These illustrations often doubled as activity pages, with readers being told to seek out specific elements in the vista, similar to a Where's Wally? game.
