I've just been watching the David Tennant episodes where the cybus Cybermen are created, I don't really understand their end game.
Part one of the plan is to transform all of the humans into Cybermen with no emotion. After that then what? Without emotion there is no drive to expand, no drive for technological advancement etc. Also without any more humans, they can't expand their population. I dunno I just see an Earth with a load of cybermen gathering dust as the wildlife reclaims the earth, until just before the sun explodes and they decide to build a ship and leave earth to gather dust somewhere else.
Any ideas what their end goals are?

Objective 1 is to upgrade everyone and survive, and they're so preoccupied with that function, endgame isn't a consideration.
Same could be said for the Daleks.
I even made a cartoon about it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2lh0RXxNEY&index=3&list=PLUCQ5hocNhsON2-MIqqkn6egoAFBHudUs
This is brilliant!!
Lumic's twisted vision was to remove illness, misery and suffering, at any cost, but he doesn't seem to have thought beyond that, making this a sort of silver goo scenario.
