'''Lord Commander Solar Macharius''' was the greatest [[Imperial Guard]] commander in Imperial history. His conquests (known as the [[Macharian Crusade]]) reached the edge of galactic space, bringing nearly a thousand worlds under Imperial control within only seven years of fighting. At the edge of the galaxy Macharius prepared to move onwards but his armies, never beaten by the enemy, wavered and crumbled at the prospect of exploring the psychic darkness at the galaxy's edge. The conquests of Macharius came to an end. No man has ever conquered more worlds nor won so many battles, not since the legendary days of the [[Great Crusade]] itself.
