I had not considered any sort of connection to the Daleks, but maybe there is something to explore here...garrisonjameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09544523186717576771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1488294190723126143.post-12814361913322535062012-11-07T10:17:51.214-06:002012-11-07T10:17:51.214-06:00IIRC, at the time the Empire State Building was be...IIRC, at the time the Empire State Building was being completed, the Daleks had captured and converted a number of men in a Manhattan Hooverville to become their porcinomorph servitors. There were a couple of hybridization stratagems in that episode. The even-more recent episode "Asylum of the Daleks" also revealed that the Daleks sometimes convert humans to Dalek form.Tallgeesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16045006122540505779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1488294190723126143.post-82295137618961383282012-11-06T16:08:55.871-06:002012-11-06T16:08:55.871-06:00Hodgson is a big influence on several of our proje...Hodgson is a big influence on several of our projects, his <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Night_Land" rel="nofollow">Nightland</a> and the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnacki" rel="nofollow">Carnacki</a> stories are incredible.

I suspected that Hodgson was an influence. It is interesting how there is a whole subterranean Dalek Slave pig-man thing going on these days also with Doctor Who. I thought the depression era Manhattan episodes were quite good.

I also like to keep things open so that other people can take the core concept and run with it, like how Needles has been bouncing the <a href="http://hereticwerks.blogspot.com/2012/04/garrisonjameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09544523186717576771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1488294190723126143.post-74621584520789559702012-11-06T06:52:20.312-06:002012-11-06T06:52:20.312-06:00I says a lot in a small space, and offers much mor...I says a lot in a small space, and offers much more, especially with the glimpse of a society and that transmission.
