Van Cjester
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Van Cjester was the inventor of the Steel Fury Baneblade Company. His writing, titled Differential Theorem of Dispersed Attrition, states that while a single allied tank may be equal to a single enemy tank, two tanks are three times as effective, due to the enemy being both outgunned 2:1 and having to destroy two tanks to survive.
His death came when his Baneblade was crushed by a traitor titan at the Battle of Ununpentia Gorge, but his life is celebrated by armoured regiments on 501, which involves a feast. He was also made a Sanctus Militarus three centuries after his death.
