BLACK BLΠFLY Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I was using Meph as an example to illustrate intitiative. I agree he is not the best counter unless you can strip off a lot of Abbadon's wounds before Meph engages. Chaos has no real psychic defense so if played right Meph could go to town. I suppose it's a question of either tailoring a list to specifically beat down Abbadon and his five terms or developing a more well rounded list that can contain him. I'd go the latter route but that's just me.

SamaNagol Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 5 Chaos Terminators are so easy to kill it is a non-issue. If it was him and 8 Berzerkers in a Raider it's more of an issue Abaddon has no force multiplying abilities whatsoever, so all of his points are sunk into him being a giant beatstick. Which means to beat him head on you will either need equal his points in Death Company or Storm Shield terminators. But as has been said, just stop him from doing much damage and you're laughing. He is ONLY good for killing things. So make sure he can't kill anything of value. Pop his transport early and make him chase you round the board on foot while you kill the other 700pts of his list that isn't Abby, 5 Terms and a Raider.

VAGABOND Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 If you take both Sanguinor and Dante that is an awesome combination to defeat Abbadon. Use Dante's curse to lower his stats then the Sanguinor targets him rerolling hits and wounds in combat. G <_< This is the exact combo I used to take him out and also me a mate math hammered Sanguinor Vs Abbason and Sanguinor was a clear winner in all 3 cases.

Brother Evar Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 My Abaddon + 5 Termi's usually dies from a hail of bolter fire and a hidden fist, you don't have to make killing him so elaborate. <_< Just run what you normally run, it really is a non issue.

rtello2389 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Lemartes with a missing wound has Str 6 I7 and 7Attacks on the charge...rerolling hits n wounds. Not a bad idea i'd say. Drop him off with a squad of DC with a couple power weps and a DC dread from a Stormraven, I think he will die. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/238092-abaddon-the-despoiler/page/2/#findComment-2911341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
