The '''''Precept Magnificat''' is '' was an [[Imperial Navy]] [[Oberon Class Battleship]], under the command of [[Fleetmaster]] [[Cassandra VanLeskus]] and serves . It served as the flagship for the [[Indomitus Crusade]]'s [[Fleet Tertius]].{{Fn|1}}
===History===Before its deployment to the [[Indomitus Crusade]], the ''Precept '' was the command vessel of [[Battlefleet|Battlefleet Centaurus]] and underwent heavy modifications to its design. This included fitting more hangars than usual for its carrier type, so that the [[Battleshipbattleship]] carried an impressive ten squadrons of [[Bomberbomber]]s, [[Fighterfighter]]s and [[Assault Boatassault boat]]s. Its ploughshare prow also had as much mass as a [[Light Cruiser|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 [[Magos Dominus|Archmagos Dominus]] [[Belisarius Cawl]]. The Battleshipbattleship's prow now also bristled with [[Augur|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 battleship of its mass.{{Fn|1}}
During the [[Pariah Crusade]] at [[Paradyce II]], the ''{{PAGENAME}} '' was destroyed by a [[Necron]] fleet with Fleetmaster VanLeskus aboard.{{Fn|2}}
