Welcome to the Doctor Who Solitaire Story Game...

Some points in History are fixed

(The Doctor The Waters of Mars)

The Doctor has always enjoyed visiting Earth at various points in history as well as mingling with the famous, andinfamous, characters that he found there. From writers like William Shakespeare, scientists like Isaac Newton, or

even the monarchy like Queen Victoria, the Doctor has always been known to namedrop some of hisacquaintances to his companions.

This expansion for the Doctor Who Solitaire Story Game offers some new adventures set within Earths varioushistorical eras, some new Enemies that are intent on disrupting the timelines for their own personal gains, severalnew historical figures that you can meet, and some more events such as Goals, Plots and locations to encounter.

How to Use this Expansion

The content of this revised expansion should just fit right into the basicgame with no modifications apart from that in e001a and e012 as

described below. However, you may wish to include the new Enemiesfrom this Expansion to be able to be encountered in Adventures from thebasic game. Since the Demoreans, Mortimus and Moon all haveTemporal capabilities, they can be encountered in virtually anyAdventure location. If a roll dictates, they could simply replace Enemiesthat you have previously encountered in the game. The Silurians can bea replacement for any Sea Devils (v525) encounter.

New Adventures

Since there are now far more Adventures within Earths history, the lines Modern Earth History and Older Earth

History in e001a are now obsolete. Replace them by the following references where all the Adventures from boththe Adventure Book and this expansion have been included and Adventures separated into their distinct Eras:

Prehistory (7+): ya01

Antiquity Era (8+): 1-2: a428; 3-4: a439; 5-6: ya09

Renaissance Era (8+): 1: a418; 2: a420; 3: a425; 4: ya04; 5: ya06; 6: ya07

Victorian Era (8+): 1: a403; 2: a417; 3: a429; 4: a437; 5: ya02; 6: ya08

Modern Era (8+): 1: a408; 2: a426; 3: a443; 4: a446; 5: ya05; 6: roll again

Silurian Earth (1993): replace result 6 on e012.

Meeting Your Heroes (optional)

Just like there are fixed points in Time that the Doctor can never (or atleast shouldnt) alter there are important people from history that shouldbe allowed to live their lives as history dictates. They certainly shouldntdie from a Silurian attack or being exterminated by a Dalek!

If a Character you meet is an important historical celebrity such asShakespeare, Dickens or Newton (anyone that you gain a Luck point formeeting) and is then killed in the Adventure, then unless they are aVictim, you must lose Luck points equal to the number of Traits they

possess. On average this is 5 Luck points, so treat them gently!
