Just started reading the battle for the abyss and was wondering what ship was bigger and most powerful?
I imagine the Abyss is smaller, it says it dwarfs even the emperor class battleships but it doesn't really say how big it truly is.
The phalanx is described as the size of a small moon so I'm guessing its bigger.
If it came to a battle who'd win?

We love what we love. Reason does not enter into it. In many ways, unwise love is the truest love. Anyone can love a thing because. That's as easy as putting a penny in your pocket. But to love something despite. To know the flaws and love them too. That is rare and pure and perfect.

The phalanx is the Imperial Fists fortress monastery come space station.
Personally I'd say the phalanx purely because it can house the entire IF chapter which could be used as boarding parties, plus I recall reading it has some of the most accurate teleporters in existence.

The Phalanx is as much bigger than the Furious Abyss as it is bigger than a frigate. The Phalanx would win.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."
This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

Alpha Legion? Why would they be there? Am I missing something from a book?

Pretty much!
The more we read, the more we all realize that the Legion is EVERYWHERE.
Well, the more you realize it.
I already knew it! 
And yes, the Phalanx, easily.

<Fist Bump> Word, brother.
All kidding aside, given what we saw in “The Face of Treachery”, that isn't far off from the truth!
