Notable Campaigns

 * Lorn V Campaign (Unknown.M41) - For many years a vicious struggle raged on the snowy fields of the Ice World of Lorn V between the Orks and the warband of the World Eaters known as the Blood Legion of Khorne, commanded by the Chaos Champion Lord Crull. Crull had led his warband to this isolated world in order to obtain an ancient artefact for the greater glory of the Blood God. The ongoing conflict was a one-sided fight for much of that time, as the Orks were often too divided amongst themselves as was the wont of that species to pose any threat to the World Eaters. But after the arrival of the fierce Ork Warlord Gorgutz and his reinforcing WAAAGH!, the Orks of Lorn V suddenly became a real menace for the World Eaters and managed to successfully assault one of their primary bases on that world. As a result of Gorgutz's arrival the conflict between the two sides became even more savage.  Eventually, Crull and the Gorgutz struck an uneasy alliance in order to destroy the encroaching Forces of Order, represented by the 412th Cadian Shock Troops Regiment of the Imperial Guard and the Eldar Craftworld Ulthwe, but this cooperation immediately broke down once Gorgutz announced that he would destroy the remains of the coveted artefact that Crull sought - an Imperator-class Titan - that had laid dormant for millennia in the ice of Lorn V, which Crull wanted to claim for his own personal gain and the glory of Khorne. Crull was eventually defeated and killed on Lorn V by the Ork Warboss Gorgutz who cut off the Chaos Lord's head and who also drove the Blood Legion of Khorne from the planet and scattered them after the loss of their leader.

Notable Members of the Blood Legion of Khorne

 * Lord Crull - Lord Crull was a Chaos Champion of the World Eaters Legion that led the Berserker warband known as the Blood Legion of Khorne. He led his warband to the world of Lorn V in order to obtain an ancient relic that had been frozen in the ice for millennia, an ancient Imperator-class Titan. His warriors engaged the Orks that inhabited the planet in a series of skirmishes that lasted for years with neither side able to overcome the other. Once the Orks were augmented by a WAAAGH! led by the Ork Warboss Gorgutz, the Blood Legion of Khorne suffered their first major defeat. Eventually, Crull formed an uneasy truce with the Ork Warboss against invading forces from both the Imperium and the Eldar, until Gorgutz broke this truce when he threatened to destroy the Titan. Eventually, the Chaos Lord and the Warboss faced one another in combat and Crull was slain and his warband was driven from the planet.
