several black crusades did not aim for cadia, yet several of the black crusades were successful, i will mention cadia where it is mentioned, not all efforts were directed at that world and there are more ways to get out of the eye than the cadian gate

so let#s see:

1st black crusade: assaults cadia and several other worlds of the segmentum obscurus, led by abaddon, gets his sword and becomes the champion of chaos undivided: aka Success

2nd Black crusade: attacks several worlds in a sector, unleashing the warp upon them and cripples imperial navy by destroying dozens of cruisers aka thos ethings that take decades oif not centuries to build, led by abaddon, success

3rd black crusade, thougth up by abaddon, diversion tactic is a demon assault on cadia, killing millions, whhile abddon desecrates a shrine world, he achieves his goaland kills millions in the process aka. success

4th black crusade: sucess fortress world killed off

5th black crusade: hundredds of worlds scoureded, 2 space marine chapters destroed, leader abaddon, win for chaos

6th crusade: removal of splinter warband commander of black legion+ destroyed forge world aka: more command to abddon and also win

7th crusade:  catr and mouse play wbetween imps and abaddon  blood angels chapter nearly destroyed (though account is weird as it speaks of thousands of BA bodies with ruined geneseed)

8th: rituals of tzeenth on segmentum obscurus worlds, seemes successful hut nobody knows what happened

9th bc destroys 2 planets, and 80% of one SM chapter again led by abaddon, actually also successful

10th bc: stalemate though abaddon targets a primary hive world of a sub sector, not much more information left, ut we can guess: task not fulfilled but also not failed and millions died anyway

this makes the 10th BC the 1st unsuccesful bc, and not abaddon failed but perturabo failed in his objective on that one.

11th bc: did nto get to the imperium but faces a waaagh!, so unsuccessful but they capture thousands of ork slaves.. so all in all still sth won form it

12th and 13th well both successful as abaddon gains grewat weapons and finally gets a permanent staging ground in the materium

problem with lucius is that abaddon is blessed by all chaos gods, which makes him harder to beat than lucius or typhon
