Bunker Barricade

A reinforced wall of heavy metal plating and salvaged machinery jams the bunker’s entrance, its jagged edges scoring the concrete as Daleks’ plasma fire licks against it. Davros’ loyalists erected the barricade to stall the Dalek advance, stacking desks, crates, and wiring conduits into a makeshift fortress. The structure groans under each plasma blast, its bolts straining—until a concentrated beam slices through, peeling back the plating like tin foil to reveal the stunned occupants.
