	*'''Lord of Lies:'''		*'''Lord of Lies:'''

	*'''Well of Souls:'''		*'''Well of Souls:''' The Well is one of the most under appreciated units in the Abyss. The ability to "suck up" 20 wounds(!) from surrounding units WITHOUT taking a nerve test is absolutely awe inspiring. Just be prepared, because most people quickly realize just how dangerous it is, and target it first and fast.

Has no melee attacks at all but it doesn't need them, and here's why The monster has Breath Attack(20)[Removed from Clash of Kings 2019] and Tempus. Tempus Is a unique rule that allows the Chroneas to shoot even while disordered. In other words if a Chroneas gets charged it can shoot it's aggressor clean with Breath Attack[now not available] the following turn, since charging units don't Treble attacks while charging The Chroneas (because he Is a monster) and it has defense 5+ The Chroneas has a good chance of surviving and blast it's aggressors off the tablet, canister shot style. Overall an AMAZING warmachine that isn't a warmachine hence being more mobile and durable, unfortunately you can only have one.

	The Abyssal Legions have a great mix of unit options, that allow it to be a highly customizable army. For horde options you have Lower Abyssals, Fleshlings, and Abyssal Guard units. For elite combat units, you have succubi, for shooting you have the lowly Flame Bearers, the Efreet, and Chroneas. The army has a mix of low and high powered flyers, strong combat characters, and hard hitters like Tortured Souls, Mollochs, and Abyssal Horsemen.

	*'''Gargoyles:''' Available in troop size only. They hit on a 4+ with a low defence of 3+, but they gain Fly and Regeneration (3+). You want to use this to harass the flanks of smaller enemy units so you don't get wiped out before you can use your Regeneration. Low model count means you're fleeing on an 11, which isn't very high at all, so you need that Regeneration to reduce your total wounds on the unit.		*'''Gargoyles:''' Available in troop size only.

	*'''Larvae:''' One of the best tarpits in the game, directly tied ~~with~~ with zombies. They both cost the same and have the same nerve, but thanks to ensnare and their higher Def, these guys are much harder to kill. Zombies, on the other hand, have-Surge casting necromancers to get around their shambling, more attacks and hit twice as often with them. So while zombies might actually rout whatever gets stuck in them now and then, larvae will simply stand in the way.		*'''Larvae:''' One of the best tarpits in the game, directly tied with zombies.

	*'''Lower Abyssals:''' Solid meat shield choice. They come with Fury and Regeneration (5+). You can take them up to horde size and can switch to two-handed weapons to gain Crushing Strength (1) at the cost of 1 point of defence. Take them at horde strength and tar pit a unit for the whole game, although you'll at time unexpectedly punch through and be able to do it again late game.		*'''Lower Abyssals:''' Solid meat shield choice.
