Would Daleks ad Cybermen team up?

[sirkalon]

I ask this because I was thinking the other day cybermen are more or less human versions of daleks (well the new ones anyway) and both races consider themselves superior to the everything else.the only difference I can see is daleks are more individualistic than cybermen. So I was thinking if they did become allies how? Did they see who could ping a server faster? whether stompy feet beats dalek glide? And finally what would such an alliance mean for the rest of universe?

I can see them allying temporarily but not long term.

They teamed up (and with others) to create the Pandorica...

They might ally themselves with each other to achieve a specific goal, such as the Pandorica, but it would only be temporary and they'd be prone to turn on each other (particularly given the right encouragement).

The Daleks see themselves as racially superior to every other species and the Cybermen would just be another inferior race to be wiped out as soon as they'd outlived their usefulness (pest control, as they said in Doomsday).

The Cybermen are motivated primarily to ensure their own survival. Although the Cybus Cybermen were ignorant of the Daleks and therefore naïve enough to try to form an alliance with them, our universe's Cybermen know of them and their ruthlessness. They wouldn't trust the Daleks any longer than they absolutely need to, and would have contingency measures in place to deal with them.

that's what I thought too it was something I was thinking about whilst cleaning
