Command Destroyers represent a versatile addition to fleets of all sizes. Being the smallest and most agile platforms for gang link technology positions them as the premier support option for fast-moving wolf packs. Unique access to Micro Jump Field Generators also allows them to perform maneuvers that rapidly reposition other ships, be they friend or foe. SHIP BONUSES

Summary
The Magus is the Gallente Command Destroyer. Following the Gallente design principles, it has bonuses to armor and skirmish Command Bursts. In its role to armor bursts it competes with the Pontifex which has more tank. This makes the Pontifex preferable. In regard to skirmish bursts it competes with the Bifrost (and to lesser extend with the Draugur). If you have shield logi support you choose the Bifrost, if armor logi the Magus. In fleets without logi, the Magus is usually passed over in favour of the Bifrost, because of its better speed. On the other hand, the Magus is probably the Command Destroyer most suited for solo PvP as the four midslots allow for a dual prop and tackle plus either web for range control or a cap booster. The bigger drone bandwidth also means it deals more damage than the Pontifex.

Tactics
Because of the advantage that skirmish bursts provide to range control, this is the more popular of the two armor command destroyers. However, its role as a "boosher," using the Micro-Jump Field Generator, is usually more important. In addition to repositioning its own fleet, the MJFG can be used to bring enemies (particularly logi) out of position, removing key ships from the fight or making them easier to kill. However, before attempting this, the fleet members must be aware that they should not use warp scramblers on anything which the command destroyer indends to boosh.
Notes
The command destroyers were added in the December 2015 patch, sometimes called the Frostline patch.
