Description
The World Eaters Legion arrives on the Throneworld
I would recommend viewing the thing in its full size
I wasn't really active in the world of 40k due to real life so i have to ask, is this canon or just fan art? Hell, i've only recently heard what happened with Cadia :/
Looks like he made this one himself. Also the Assault on Terra happened during the Horus Heresy.
Edit: You can even see the MkIII helmets they're still using.
yeh, this is Horus Heresy stuff. M41-era World Eaters haven't been blue and white in a while.
I did sprinkle some red and brass in there as well as the Chaos-style banners and horns to show that by this point the Legion is firmly in Khorne's grasp.
Ha true, i didn't zoom in the picture to see the helmets. I know about the Horus Heresy but i thought this was a "new" assault... silly me :D
a new attack on the first one's scale would certainly be something to see
I read that there was recently a daemonic assault by Khorne's legions near the Imperial palace a few days after Gullimann faced Magnus on Luna, but it didn't seem like it was anything too major, and of course, girlymann saved the day.
Yup, it happened while Guilliman was preparing the Indomitus Crusade.
It was significative enough to be called 'Second Battle of Terra', but not enough to even be mentioned properly. You find out about it while reading about the Indomitus Crusade.
The weather you see above is a regular on Terra now...
