As for epic failure: Abaddon couldn't take Cadia with several legions of Chaos Space Marines, Daemons, Cultists and Renegade Guardsmen, that's fine...but Huron Blackheart took out an entire PDF force, an Imperial Guard Regiment and five companies of Space Marines with only 200 space marines himself. Yeah, I think Huron would make a good Warmaster of Chaos. A pity then that he is only interested in being a piratical reaver, albeit a very good one.
