Regiment:
501st Cadian Planetary Assault Regiment Creation: 10 years before the Malachor incursion.
Founding Officer: Solon Blaak - perished in service to the Emperor.
Current officer: Commander Stephen Stakes
The 501st was formed as a development to the standard airborne forces - the newly created regiment had the equipment and training to carry on planetary assaults as well as the heavy weaponry and tanks needed to hold it in the Emperor's light.
The Ulthwe wars
The regiment's first significant task was against the Ulthwe Eldar who threatened whole systems at the time. The 501st lost almost 90% of it's original troopers in the battles including Commander Solon, who died honorably by the hands of daemonic wraithlord, heroically delaying the monster thus gaining time for his comrades to face it with the full wrath of the Emperor's burning light. His noble sacrifice was not in vain, for in that last conflict the Ulthwe were finally driven off the world, their Far Seer killed by the men of the Imperium.
The few survivors are known as the 1st Army veterans. They are elite soldiers and officers, capable of turning the tide of battle with either careful planning or bold attacks against the enemy.
