I'm not sure of the wisdom of using Pandora mythology, mainly because it has already been used quite expertly in the Gallifrey audio series (Imperiartrix Pandora)

Originally posted by Alan View PostJust shows how serious the situation is. When the Daleks are teaming up with anyone it can only be for reasons that are beneficial to their empire. For the Daleks I'd say that ensuring their empires' survival and its on-going goal to exterminate all other lifeforms and conquer the universe would be good enough reasons for joining up with Cybermen, Sontarans, Autons, etc. Undoubtedly the instant they'd saved the universe and reality itself they'd have all tried killing each other off.sigpic

I never thought they were united by their hatred for The Doctor, but united by their desire to survive. Cybermen want to covert everyone, Daleks want to exterminate everyone, Sontarans want to conquer yet when it affects them all, they came together. It was more a matter of him being responsible for killing them all and they had to team up to stand a chance of survival.
Ultimately it came down to "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".

Just one thing there about the Sontarans. Their primary goal is to win a war against another war-like species called the Rutans and both species will use whatever the universe offers to accomplish that goal. Conquest is a secondary objective for both the Sontarans and the Rutans once their free of their war effort. Unfortunately many people of many planets will suffer because of the war and will still wage on between them both 10,000 years from now.Last edited by Alan; 17 March 2011, 04:23 PM.

Originally posted by Alan View PostI think their hatred of the Doctor made it a lot easier for those species to come together to form an alliance. Had it been anyone else they were trying to lock away an alliance wouldn't have been necessary. But the Doctor - the Oncoming Storm, the Ka Faraq Gatri - that's another thing all together. He could resist. He could beat all their groups separately...but together its much more difficult for him. They used the element of surprise against him and did the one thing he did not expect - join together.
