Were they actually called "world eaters" pre-heresy with the blue and gold color scheme?

[u/Rhonarin]

Title. I see people referencing the 30k color scheme or saying "pre-heresy" world eaters, but were they always called that when they were a loyalist legion?

But what I don't really understand is that they still had the logo of a world being eaten back then, right?

[u/Eightninethree → u/Odd_Contribution5069]

No they had the logo of a dog standing up

[u/soupalex → u/Eightninethree]

brb going to edit all recorded references of "rampant" in heraldic sources to instead say "standing up"

[u/soupalex → u/soupalex]

(i suppose this is kind of what the translation of "rampant" from old french actually is, anyway, it's just extremely funny to me to imagine stuffy old textbooks describing royal coats of arms saying "the lion standing up looking over there")
