    This could actually make for a terrifying enemy...someone with so much control over space/time that he can pull together not just one army, but the alternate-quantum-reality duplicates of every soldier from an effectively limitless number of realities. And not only that, but a further infinite supply of soldiers who do not even exist in this reality but do in some other.

    Yeah, that's the one I'm really interested in. It must be the Ultimate Weapon he used to end the war, but, what was it?

    That may already have been used as "The Sofa Of Reasonable Comfort" ...

    I think the easiest way to come up with weapons of the Last Great Time War is to marry nouns and adjectives that one wouldn't ordinarily put together:

    • The Bedtime Massacre
    • The Immortal Infant
    • The Demon Lounge
    • The Sterility Cousin
    • The Northern Exposure

    Are you telling me that Northern Exposure was some kind of weapon system left over from the Last Great Time War?

    Cause... I kinda liked it.

    Well, that's the problem with Time Wars: when you use causality as a weapon, it's hard to figure out what came from when, or where.

    :D

    I have a cure for that:

    The Plinkett Star Wars Prequel Trilogy Reviews.

    It'll take three hours, but you need to watch them all the way through. It brings closure to the horrific rape of your childhood.

    I assumed it was the Doctor's unique ability to turn up at exactly the right time to trounce his enemies and look cool doing so. He certainly does "seize the Moment".
