The only problem is that the only known Tardis is stuck in the Police Callbox shape. Who knows what the newer model Tardis's are capable of shaping into. Also, I still haven't seen most of the older episodes, so I don't know if the Time Lords even use spacecraft besides the Tardis. Nice picture, though.

Well, the Master's Tardis has turned into things like a grandfather clock, statue, column, and airplane. And there was a brief period with the sixth Doctor, when he repaired the chameleon circuit and the Tardis looked like a piano.

Ah, I miss that show...

I think you could use a tech area that gives you the "geometrically transcendental" mount, which divides all component sizes by a number (larger as the tech advances).

A time ship would also have good cloaking levels and good temporal scanning levels. You'd need good temporal scanners to detect them. The Time Lords are psychic as well as time-sensitive, and you seem to need both to be able to pilot a time ship.

Thing is, the Time Lords don't want to rule the galaxy. I suppose though that you could make a scenario where everyone else is an unenlightened powermonger type trying to conquer them. I don't know that SE4 is particularly well equipped to handle it, though. Brute force can't really work - there always has to be some sort of gimmick or ruse to enable force to be used.

The government channel here in Australia is showing all the Dr Who episodes from the beginning. I expect it's going to take them a few years to get through them all. Currently they are up to the second doctor and the Ice warriors of Mars have appeared. I was just thinking yesterday that maybe the Tardis travels to alternate futures as well. That would explain why human ships and technology are different each time he goes to the future. The timeline he is in now has matter transporters.
