Abbadon is not a great general, he is as good at small actions as most imperial chapter masters but struggles with large scale operations. The best general chaos has is definitely Huron Blackheart, he has been operating as a chaos warmaster for less than two centuries & has created the 2nd largest chaos force in the galaxy & it is growing fast. On current trends Hurons forces would out number Abbadons within decades or sooner given how fast Abbadon uses up his armies. Huron happens to be utterly insane but this doesn't seem to impare his strategic & tactical thinking much at all & he is much smarter than Abbadon. All in all Huron is a far more dangerous general than Abbadon will ever be & it's only the chaos gods that could prevent Huron taking the mantle of chaos warmaster from abbadon in the near future, barring some galactic hyper event like the Emperor kicking the bucket of course.
