Games Workshop Previews Abaddon for 40k

Games Workshop is spoiling what Abaddon the Despoiler does in the new Chaos Codex. Seems fitting enough. Get a look at this major name in the ranks of the Chaos Hordes in this preview.

From the article:

Fans of ornate gold trim and brutal spikes rejoice – Codex: Chaos Space Marines is nearly with us. And, you’ll be able to continue the Long War against that false god some call ‘The Emperor’ by pre-ordering this baleful book on Saturday.

Every crusade needs a strong leader, and who better to command your daemon-warped superhuman warriors than the (self-appointed) Warmaster of Chaos himself, Abaddon the Despoiler? This terrifying tyrant has seen things – he was there with Horus from day one, but after his Primarch let the galaxy slip through his talons, Abaddon swore he wouldn’t make the same mistake.*
