    The funny thing about the 8th doctors regeneration on karn, the novelization of "the day of the doctor" gives more detail. The sisterhood doesn't give him an actual potion, it was lemonade and dry ice. She knew the "warrior" he asked for was already in him. She gave him the "potion" to give him the peace of mind that something external changed him, when in fact nothing changed with his personality.

    I think the Time War is an example of better left imagined than explained. I say this mainly due to a line of 10's in The End Of Time which I instantly adored, specifically when he mentions all the other threats of that conflict (The Nightmare Child, The Horde of Travesties, etc) I know in the War Doctor expanded media some of these were flat out "explained" and came across as underwhelming to say the least.

    Even then, I feel like coming across as underwhelming might have been the point in some cases. When it comes to wars in general, it's easy to call any given major battle "boring" or "kinda neat" when you're reading about it objectively in a history book. But for the soldiers who were actually there? The horrors that they personally experienced in that battle would be quite literally ineffable. It's like the dark inverse of one of those "you had to be there" in-jokes between close friends.

In-Universe however, I'd be absolutely scared shitless of the Nightmare Child. Even if it was just a really big super Dalek (It's not, but I want to prove a point), if I lived in the Whoniverse, I would not get good sleep at seeing the thing devour Davros' ship. Easily the best example of "Scary In-Universe, Underwhelming Out-of-Universe" is the Abzorbaloff. That thing is goofy af but if it was real, I'd never trust anyone again.

    I always prefered the original moment. The Doctor using the de-mat gun with the eye of Rassilon to essentially collapse an entire section of reality, locking it away forever. It made it feel more personal and why he took to his no killing policy so seriously, he didn’t just steal a weapon, he built it with the full intention of killing billions and did so. I always assumed that the guilt of such an act actually triggered a regeneration as it quite literally broke his heart to perform such a vile act of aggression, so out of his own nature. Which is where Eccelstones Doctor comes in. A broken man, still recovering from centuries of war and that he was the greatest war criminal in all of time and space.

    Ret-cons are real-world authorial actions to modify the history of a story. This was done in-story via time travel, so "ret-con" doesn't really fit. From the perspective of the storytelling, the change to history was performed in the story at the most recent moment (when the 11th Doctor was experiencing it). All the previous Doctors and Gallifrey were in essence the history being meddled with. I think you're trying to see time in the Doctor Who universe as self-consistent (meaning anything you go back into the past to do, you always were going to have done), but they very blatantly make it not so. This was explicitly changing the way history played out.

Since the "change" happened BEFORE the event it's easy to surmise that this is what the continuity was from the beginning. It wasn't retroactive but proactive...Narratively speaking. Obviously to us viewers it was retroactive, but within the universe it was proactive meaning there is NO good reason to assume that Galifrey was ever actually destroyed. Especially since such an eventuality was never actually shown in any of the various cannon or even extended cannon sources.

    One major mistake: "the original timeline" as you described it regarding the end of the Time War is how it always went. The Doctor doesn't know because it's a multi-Doctor story. It's always been established canon that Rassilon made it so that if you meet your past self, only the oldest you will remember the events, in order to protect the web of time. This only stopped functioning once the Time Lords and Gallifrey were locked away, which is why it doesn't work in Time Crash. Because Ten and Eleven showed up, and then later the rest, nobody except Eleven was able to retain memories of activating The Moment. From the Doctor's perspective, he went into the barn to activate The Moment, blacked out, and woke up as Nine with the Time War over and everyone gone. From his perspective, he probably figured this was just a side-effect of activating The Moment, although he might have also considered the idea that one of his other incarnations tried to stop him. There's only one timeline. Ten and Eleven didn't change the past, they were always present at the end of the Time War, but because Eleven is there, War lost all memories when they parted ways, so Nine and Ten couldn't remember it. Although it's never addressed, presumably Eleven has a five minute or so gap in his memories from Twelve showing up.

So what if they travelled into the future, popped into a museum and then read something saying that their side not only lost, but it was a complete devastation? Now it becomes a fixed point in time, causing the whole structure of time to collapse. Maybe that’s why both sides had prophecies; to avoid setting anything unwanted into stone.

    You can't do a first person Time War. The time war isn't fought in linear time. It is fought with timeloops, branches, paradoxes, and more. Where the impossible timelines that once had been and never were are manifest into unspeakable horrors and turned against the possible. Where possibilities are ammunition and the past is a battle still being waged. Galaxies sputter and die a slow entropic death. Then they never existed. Then they lasted eternity. Then the Daleks fire on the ember that would become the Galaxy as every species that ever would be born within time travel to that beginning and try in vain to prevent their own unmaking.

    This was really well done. I applaud your efforts and greatly appreciate the time it must have taken to compile it all. One thing I'm curious about: You mentioned a sort of treaty between the Daleks and the Time Lords which would be culminated with the execution of the Master. But the Daleks have been hard-wired to believe that all other life forms are inferior, presumably including the Time Lords. So, I think that chances are more than good that this Treaty - should it have come to pass - might have been a ruse to get a small Dalek attack force on Gallifrey itself. Just a thought.

    Based on the analysis presented, the refusal of a Time Lord to commit genocide against the Daleks as they were created may explain their hesitation in killing his regenerated selves. At some level they may respect him, but still fear the power of Gallifrey. Perhaps they even entered the time war predicting that the Doctor would ultimately end it and remove Gallifrey as a threat. Their attacks on earth seem to occur more frequently than randomness would explain. Provoking what they may have prophesied as future actions by the Doctor who felt he was out of options?

    I've personally got a different view for the concept of the 1st and 2nd timelines for the day of the doctor. I've always viewed it as the 2nd timeline in which the doctors saved Gallifrey as what had always happened but due to the fact that when timelords meet past versions of themselves only the oldest version retains their memory of the event happening. It means that the story can flow as it always did naturally as the war doctor having just lived through the event of day of the doctor then regenerates into the 9th doctor thinking he had used the moment because as far as he could remember that's what happened. He couldn't remember using it but he remembered taking the moment and then Gallifrey and the Daleks were gone so his natural conclusion would have been that he used it. Then the cyclical nature would continue. So it isn't two timelines it's just one continuous circle.

    So many good stories from this ingenious idea of Russell's. I only wish "All thirteen!" Doctors had saved the children of Gallifrey, instead of saving the entire planet in Day of the Doctor. I mean, they were said to be as bad as the Daleks, so why save them?? The Doctors could have taken the children to a different, but lost planet. A new generation of Time Lords somewhere out there. But when the Doctor finally finds them, they're anything but thankful...

    The Eighth Doctor Novels had the idea of the Time War long before RTD and Moffat used it in the series. In fact, from my readings, I conclude that the concept of the Time War was directly taken from the Eighth Doctor Adventures, including the Doctor "destroying" Gallifrey. I really wish script writers would come up with their own original ideas and not just mine previously written books for ideas.

    The narrator’s analysis is the perfect expression of the horrors of a time war. His recollection of the events of the war differ massively from those presented in the version I have seen in the television series. Why? One might argue this is the result of time travelers seeking to modify the timeline ad nauseam (repeatedly) in order to win the war.
