      @REgamesplayer 3 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      Not really. Story here is messed up with key words, but he managed to kill him by allowing himself to be mortally wounded. Abbadon allowed for Sigismund to strike a mortal blow to himself. When he did, he exposed himself and Abbadon struck his blow in return. His proved to be fatal. In essence, Abbadon killed him not through skill or mastery, but through sheer tenacity and persistence to live through mortal strikes.

      What are you but a cowardly weakling that succumbed to the tentation of praying four pathetics beings called "god"?
      What are you but a Renegade; a traitor; that will never find peace?
      You are a Betrayer.
      Betrayer of your blood
      Betrayer of your race
      Betrayer of your kin
      Betrayer of your home
      Betrayer of the Imperial Truth.
      Know this; Monster.
      I see you attacking me constantly on your words.
      I will answer you kindly in the same type.
      I am not hurt by the brothers who betrayed me.
      I am not shaken by the amount of blood I spill in His name.
      For I am an adeptus Astartes; a son of the Emperor; a successor to the angel.
      And against creatures like you, teaming in numbers and powered by the will of four beings even more pathetic; you never managed to destroyed us.
      We have held the line; and we shall hold it for ten thousands years.
      What about you heretic?
      Are you that weak?
      Are you that pathetic?
      Truth be told.
      You are a spineless, cowardly, honorless; greedy, treasonous dog.
      Does my words burned you that much? Because yours left me as cold as the fenrissian cold.

      Even better if he returned as he was when he was in his physical prime, but with all the experience, wisdom and knowledge he gained over the years. The only reason Abbadon won was that he was as he was when they started the Horus Heresy, while Sigismund had grown quite old, even for a Space Marine. I doubt anyone, in the galaxy, the warp or beyond the galaxy would be able to defeat him, not even Khorne, nor any C'Tan or any other myriad of mighty being. He'd defeat them all, and with honour.

    Abaddon was in a massive rejuvenation tank while telling this story (think Luke in Empire Strikes Back or Rico in Starship Troopers). That's a pretty big detail to get wrong. Also the way I read it was Abaddon was grief stricken by the death of Siggismund, and also stunned by his tenacity and down right refusal to die. Those final words shocked him to his core. Didn't really get the same vibe from this. Still decent though

    People often fail to realize (Due to the meme's around abby) just how much of a brutal warrior and devastating presence Abbaddon is. The guy in Black legion is literally described as a tall as a towering primarch. And though they specify his blade skill is good at best he only needs to be good to win, savagely ruining his enemies with raw vengeance and bitter lust for battle. Even if faced with the king smurf himself Abby would go tooth and nail and maybe even fight him to a stand still.

      But mid heresy he got juiced on chaos and learned he was a psyker with the ability to tear titans apart. Now hes one of 3 daemon princes of chaos undivided in the entire setting, blessed by all 4 chaos gods in a way that far surpasses Abby's own blessings.
      He's still not the greatest hand to hand fighter, but Abaddon would still be out of his league with that one. I guess it would depend on circumstance though, GW have a bad habit of forgetting characters are psykers when they fight (like every time someone has fought the Swarmlord) so maybe Abby could come out on top

What is clearly shown is that Abbadon honours worthy enemies.

    The art is very well done, and the voice acting is better than usual for a fan project. My one point of criticism is that I think they should have cut some of Khayon's narration in this scene, and let the camera do the speaking for him. It's something that you need in an actual book as ADB wrote it, but is kind of distracting when you hear it over visuals where you should be able to just look at what he's talking about. Overall very well done and I would like to see more.
