Drone commander

A drone commander was an officer rank in the New Dalek Paradigm, equivalent to a Dalek leader. (PROSE: The Visual Dictionary: Updated and Expanded) Drone commanders led drones, (PROSE: Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe) but answered to higher authorities, such as strategists, (COMIC: The Only Good Dalek) the Eternal Dalek, supreme Daleks, and the Prime Minister.

Early drone commanders used matt light red casing, making them indistinguishable from drones. (GAME: City of the Daleks, The Eternity Clock; COMIC: The Only Good Dalek) Later drone commanders used metallic dark red New Dalek Paradigm casing with slimmer weapons hatches, distinguishing them from drones, which re-adopted the bronze and gold casings from the Last Great Time War.
