The Precept Magnificat is an Imperial Navy Oberon Class Battleship, under the command of Fleetmaster Cassandra VanLeskus and serves as the flagship for the Indomitus Crusade's Fleet Tertius.[1]
Before its deployment to the Indomitus Crusade, the Precept was the command vessel of Battlefleet Centaurus and underwent heavy modifications to its design. This included fitting more hangars than usual for its carrier type, so that the Battleship carried an impressive ten squadrons of Bombers, Fighters and Assault Boats. Its ploughshare prow also had as much mass as a Light Cruiser. After it joined the Indomitus Crusade, the Precept was further modified by being equipped with large amounts of strategic and communications equipment, much of it newly designed by Archmagos Dominus Belisarius Cawl. The Battleship's prow now also bristled with augur arrays, which enhanced its capabilities as a command vessel. One draw back to the Precept's current design, though, was that it was lightly armed for a Battleship of its mass.[1]
During the Pariah Crusade at Paradyce II, the Precept Magnificat was sacrificed by Fleetmaster VanLeskus in an unsuccessful bid to ram the Necron Pylon Ship.[2]
