Necrons:
The Necron Tomb World is having a good nap, minding its own buisness
When suddenly some very RUDE PDFs wake them up >>>>>>>>>>> *groan*
This annoys the Necrons ALOT! 'What the f?*k you son of a Bi@~h!'
It annoys them so much, they decide to murder the planet ---------------------------------------
The Necrons then go back to sleep, happy with a good days work.

Tyranids:
The baby Hive Fleet wants a Happy Meal
But his mum says no
So now the Hive Fleet is Sad and VERY Hungry!
It decideds to eat a planet, *nom nom nom* and this makes the PDFs be very sad
The PDFs call their big brothers, the space Marines and the Inquisition
These do not play fair and destroy the whole planet and everything on it
The Hive Fleet is left starving, screaming through space, ALL I WANTED WAS A HAPPY MEAL!!!

What about the Chaos Lord that invaded Catachan?
His fleet blew holes into the jungle and he landed in one of the clearings only to be strangled to death with a Catachan creeper vine by Iron Hand Straken and the rest of his force was destroyed by Strakens regiment.
Or the Ecclesiarchy Lord (Cardinal Bucharis) who attacked Fenris and spent 3 years, millions of troops and dozens of ships smashing his head against the Fang before a single great company turned up and routed the entire fleet in a single battle.

I think I'd remember if the codex mentioned that Catachan was invaded. Are you sure you aren't talking about one of the campaigns on another jungle world?

It's in Planetstrike, page 56.

Chaos Lord Ratathrax of the Night Lords invades Catachan. Sending vast anti-plant barrages onto the planet, Ratharax robs the Catachan Imperial Guard of their most natural defense before systematically bombing their bastion networks into rubble. Ratharax makes planetfall to enjoy the butchery first hand.
Unfortunately for him Colonel Straken, lying in ambush in a quagmire of toxic sludge, waits for Ratharax to remove his helmet before throttling him with a poisonous barb-root.

Same thing. Topknot wearers are protected by plot armor.

It has nothing to do with his topknot or plot armor.

It has everything to do with that he has an endless supply of clones, much like Palpatine.

Whenever Abaddon dies, another clone wakes up and goes "not again!"
