Is it the crimson slaughter? Or possibly a world eaters legion?

It is definitely the Crimson Slaughter, I believe the cover depicts the Battle for Bane's Landing.

I think the picture on the front of the codex may of been doctored somewhat in photoshop to make it appear more red and eyecatching for a codex cover. The browner look of the Blood Gorgons seems to differ from the codex cover which seems more red, to me anyway.

Either way I think it is one of my favourite codex covers.

Ha ha ha derp I was thinking of a completely different picture. Apologies thought you were talking about the helbrute for some odd reason.

By the way, I like the book a lot. It is one of the best descriptions of a CSM force ever written.

(I mean Blood Gorgons, of course)
