The Looming Chaos Helbrute

A Battlefield of Carnage
Scattered corpses and broken enemies, including a mauled loyalist Space Marine, underscore the Black Legion’s overwhelming might. The fiery, apocalyptic backdrop heightens the grim tone, symbolizing the eternal war between the Imperium and the forces of Chaos.
