Lord Solar Macharius

Lord Solar Macharius is one of the greatest badasses in Imperial history. His tactical genius was so great that he would inspire Creed to follow his footsteps, 500 years later. During the Macharian Crusade, he more-or-less single-handedly pushed back Imperial borders to the greatest extent since the Great Crusade. He even has a tank named after him! He's got the martial skill of Straken, the tactical genius of Creed, and the determination of Yarrick. To put it in more understandable terms, he conquered a thousand worlds in a decade with only a few (compared to most Imperial armies) regiments. It is said that when he reached the edge of the galaxy and was told that they'd run out of planets to conquor, he dropped to his knees and wept manly tears. These tears then turned into more planets, which he then proceeded to conquor. It is also said that his forces would not travel beyond the light of the Astronomicon, just like Alexander the Great's forces would not enter India. His crusade is used to this day by Imperial academies as a textbook example of how to manage interstellar campaigns.
Way back in the dark days of 3rd edition, Macharius had rules in the Imperial Guard Codex and being quite bad. However, they removed him from later editions, joining the ranks of Cypher and Doomrider. His model is (was?) still available to purchase.
