Eagles of Skaro

Continuing that diesel punk Dalek thing where I was considering the 1000 year war between the Kaled and Thals.

I assumed a period similar to our own early to mid 1940’s and to go with my earlier tracked Dalek I figured on there being some sort of air power and a radial engined Dalek flyer just seemed to do the trick.

Of course this begs many questions.
Not lease is how do you adjust all those poppet valves with only a rubber suction cup or steel grabby thing ? Perhaps the full on mutant Dalek race is a way off and standard limbed personnel build and maintain the flyers.

A humanoid pilot would have to be some poor short bugger that has to be squeezed into the machine – not much fun and a proper window might have been better.

It could be that there are genetically modified hybrids that were especially “grown” for the flyer but having the tech and understanding for manipulating the Kaled Genome doesn’t somehow sit right in an era of radial combustion engines, projectile weapons and tank tracks.

… and this is the trouble with this sort of crap, it makes your brain hurt :)
