I've posted this list before, but felt it deserved an update review.
The list is designed with a ranged element in mind.

The list I was thinking of going with that doesn't have any range is as follows

Absylonia
Carnivean
Angelius
Scythean
Raek
Shredder
Shredder
Shredder
Forsaken
Forsaken

The second list has ranged, dont discount Angelius or Carniveans breath when you really wana hit at ranged, granted its not as good, but its there. Im not a huge fan of a carnivean in Abbys list, its good, but id rather 1 point for typhon or -1 point for a ravagore and put in a shepherd. Im also not a huge Raek fan, but thats fine too. If you want to get a good kick, Id suggest getting a blister of Stingers and put 2 in instead of 3 shredders, not only does it have a cute little spray but its stinger can put a REAL hurt on casters and/or infintry. Even with its body out, against living models its rolling 2d6+12 for damage.

I played the EXACT list as the first and it worked great...opponent didn't know whether to ****e or go blind. Really fun to play as well.

My friend helped me build this list recently:

Aby
Typhon
Scythean
Ravagore
Shredder
Shredder
Stinger
Forsaken
Forsaken
Forsaken

I didn't get a chance to play it yet because my opponent brought out the guy from Circle who is anti Hordes with 8 focus, so I played Elylyth instead. Anyhoo, I am excited to play this tier list (all 3 heavies get advanced deploy, 3 Forsaken!). This list is just fun, crazy, and awesome! Aby by far has one of the most playable tier lists that doesn't also kick you in the seat of your pants at the start of your next turn for having fun and wrecking your opponent.

Missing an Angelius, otherwise not bad. I posted in another thread my break down of how I make an abby list.

If you dont want to click the link, basicly at 35 you dont need or want 3 forsaken, 2 stingers is better then 1 but its doable, you want an angelius purely on the fact that it is a high defense tank. Id take your friends list drop the ravagore to an angelius drop one of the forsaken and make it into a spawning vessel with the 1 free point from the ravagore or do that and drop typhon to a carnivean and use the 4 points for a raek.


Aby's list is very playable theme force, but so are a lot of legions other ones. Bethayne, PVayal, Rhyas' rearguard, PThagrosh, and to an extent EVayal, though hers I feel strips your hitting power by requireing 3 winged beasts.
