The Daleks (The Doctor Who Role Playing Game)

The supplement is divided into two books: a 40-page gamemaster's booklet with truthful background information about the Daleks, including society, history, tactics, and physiology; and a 24-page booklet with information for players titled "The Dalek Problem – A Symposium", supposedly written by the Celestial Intervention Agency.

"[1] Although these two booklets were originally sold together, they are usually found separately on the used book market.

The Daleks was designed by the staff writers of Fantasimulation Associates, Guy McLimore Jr., Greg Poehlein, and David F. Tepool.

[2] In the May 1986 edition of White Dwarf (Issue #77), Barry Bailey reviewed both The Daleks and The Master, which had been released simultaneously.

Bailey complimented FASA for including updated rules on the Daleks that made them much harder to damage in combat, but criticized FASA for the necessity of including this information in a supplement rather than the original rules, saying, "I wonder, however, why it was necessary to do this in a supplement?
