10,000 Daleks vs. Skynet

Post by ChosenOne54 »

By the act of some random omnipotent being, 10,000 Daleks are dropped right into Skynet Earth, and go about their usual thing of exterminating everything in sight. These are fully-armed Time War era Daleks. No orbital bombardment is allowed. Skynet has their compliment of T-800s, T-1000s, and even a few T-Xs, as well as larger machines like Harvesters. Neither side can use Time Travel in this scenario.

Can the Daleks win?

At what point of Terminator continuity is this? Do we incorporate the shitty Terminator EU? Will the Daleks have to adapt to the Terminator universe's time travel rules?

It had to be said.
"There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs." - John Rogers

My money's on Daleks; at their peak they're something that you just can't fight with approximately-human-level weapons. And even high-end Terminators are approximately human level- man-portable antitank weapons can give them a really bad day.

God. Can we get the Daleks in a versus scenario versus some guys who'll actually kick the shit out of them? These Dalek fanboys making lame VS scenarios against underpowered or obviously weaker guys, just to appease themselves to see their favorites win, and changing OP scenarios when the opposing forces provide the Daleks with some difficulty, is getting annoying.

Fucking Terminator? Where Skynet loses to a bunch of hobos who eat rats for a living? Jesus.

You know, I thought it would be balanced by the fact that Skynet pretty much have control over the entire world and vastly outnumber the Daleks, as well as having nukes.

But if you say so.

10,000 Daleks sounds like it would probably outnumber the terminators to me. After Judgement Day ie) the good ol' nuclear Armageddon there wasn't much of a population left.

On the other had, how well are death rays going to against terminators? We've seen them give humans a fatal dose of Arkham Asylum detective vision but leave them otherwise untouched. They've killed cybermen but again they could just be affecting the organic buts. Firepower has otherwise been remarkable. Terminator chassis are very durable. Until the Daleks figure out to aim for the top left part of the skull to zap the chip, they may run into trouble.

Dalek 'death rays' have been shown to outright vaporize dozens of aircraft in rapid-succession at a range of what seems to be a kilometre or greater.

Their shields provide near total protection against bullets (the scene where the one Dalek lost its eye was because Jack had a forcefield weakening the Daleks), and are entirely unaffected by Cybermen Wrist-blasters and other energy weapons.

Cyberman wrist blasters can do this:

And the human energy weapons can do this:

Both have absolutely no effect on Daleks.

I always wanted to do a Negation vs.... but I am afraid not many people have heard of the Negation. That would be an interesting match up. The Daleks against their Lawbringers, who are arguably more evil than the Daleks are. And more crazy too.

Skynet lost control over what little was left out of an entire nuked out shithole to a bunch of humans who lived in holes and ate rats for a living and had technicals for armored vehicles.

Negation from that weird CROSSGEN comics or something? Led by that guy made out of starry starry stuff? Which I know nothing about? Go ahead and do it, mang. :D

Someone also pitted the Daleks against the Invader Zim guys, and wasn't the outcome unfavorable to the Daleks? Bleh, either way these guys would revise the OP until they get their desired outcome, namely their lovely widdle Daleks winning.

Anyone guess what their next Dalek versus Defeatable Enemy thread for the day will be? :lol:

I'd love to see the Daleks get their salt-shaker asses kicked too; but they are a pretty big menacing evil empire, as menacing evil empires go.

See my thread than. I made something that just might do.
It has become clear to me in the previous days that any attempts at reconciliation and explanation with the community here has failed. I have tried my best. I really have. I pored my heart out trying. But it was all for nothing.

You win. There, I have said it.

Now there is only one thing left to do. Let us see if I can sum up the strength needed to end things once and for all.

Are there going to be any numbers presented in this thread, or is it just going to be a lot of shrieking about dalek supremacy? Let's start small; how do people think a Dalek matches up against an Air Hunter Killer?

Let's see... Air Hunter Killers have plasma beams IIRC. Those appear to be somewhere in between a small rocket launcher and a large rifle in terms of damage output. It has no energy sheilds and the fact that it flies, using jets as opposed to some miraculous reactionless drive, rather limits the amount of armor it has. Dalek weaponry appears to have similar output per shot but a higher rate of fire and longer demonstrated range. Dalek sheilds have been shown to block both projectile weaponry and DEWs in large quantities rather effectively. If the AHK tries to fly away, the Dalek can fly after it. I think it's pretty clear that the Dalek wins.

Fairly well, I'd imagine. HK air units can be easily destroyed by a single RPG as shown during a flashback in T1, and Dalek beams are specifically shown to be able to vaporize aircraft.

Good; now, does anyone have any numbers?

Also, prove that the aircraft were converted to vapour. No, the fact that you can't see debris doesn't mean it wasn't there.

I believe somebody over at spacebattles did some calcs, based on how much power the lone Dalek drained in 'Dalek.'

Either way, one-shotting aircraft in flaming fireballs is more impressive than what I've seen Skynet use. :P

More impressive like... say an HK one-shotting a nuclear submarine that was submerged in Terminator Salvation?

Are you going to repeat that lie in every dalek thread?
There is no evidence of vaporization; they shoot He111s which then explode, possibly because they are packed with fuel and bombs!
