Once again though, your blind fanboyism has blinded you to any other possibility other than Imperial victory. Here's the truth though. This Crusade is still very much on going. The Imperium is far from winning, for the simply do not have the resources to push Abbaddon back currently. Cadia is lost, Chaos has taken it, deal with that fact.

Not really all fanboys are we?
Quoting Lexicanum
State after the Thirteenth Black Crusade
During the worldwide campaign of Abaddon the Despoiler's Thirteenth Black Crusade, the forces of Chaos managed to establish a major foothold on Cadia, though they lost the battle in space. The result of this is that most of Cadia is now under control of Chaos forces, although they have no way currently of being reinforced.
Chaos did alot of damage still but they are still stuck...

I never said YOU were a fanboy, you're making that up, and I never said Chaos was winning. Simply that they are no where close to being defeated, and that the Imperium is already stretched, with little hope of bringing the necessary forces round in time to push Abbaddon back.

Wait your saying I am making up that I am fanboy or the quote? And not really they still have a few more reinforcements. Plus Abbaddon being able to defeat the terran defense force is going to be absolutely impossible with his current forces.

You went through all that to make an irrelevant point. I have never said that Chaos has won, nor have I said that they are winning, you THINK I said that for some odd reason, probably because you can't deal with any sort of opposing information. The Impeirum as not won, they aren't even close to winning, but neither are Chaos, and both have their current disadvantages and advantages over their opponents. Those images kind of prove that most of this argument is motivated by you being a fanboy, as once again Coa, you ignore a lot of the stuff you quote. That lovely wishlist has nearly no basis of fact in your predictions. The Imperium doesn't have the reinforcements they need, their fleet is borken, the Eldar have retreated and there's still the Blackstone Fortress and possibly the Planet Killer to deal with, as well as Chaos controlling the vast majority of Cadia's surface, and the damage they've done to the other planets that compose the Gate.

They have some reinforcements, but it won't be enough. The Crusade will continue into the next millenia, and this time it may not be defeated.
I never said a thing about Terra, but I agree, currently, Abbaddon doesn't have a hope in hell of defeating Earth's defenses.

I don't know what to say. I am backed by official fluff. I didn't read anywhere that "Imperium doesn't have the reinforcements they need" but I read that reinforcements are on their way."
It is obvious you don't know what you are writing and blaming others not being informed enough when they oppose your claims. And this statement you are making that Imperium has no force to respond when codex clearly states it has proves my point.
I am am a Human fanatiic, but Tau conquered Taros, Tyranids eat Gryphone IV, Chaos raided Cadian sector and it will be rebuilding for years, maybe centuries, Eldar cleansed several planets from Humans, Orks devastated Armageddon, Daek Eldar r**** Bakka, Mankind is losing war for it's survival...

Making things up. It says reinforcements are on their way. It does not say they will be enough, it doe not say how much, it does not reveal how many other threats are running rampant due to the stupid number of forces being diverted, it doesn't say that the Imperium will win back Cadia because of it.

It's not a circle. Humanity is losing it's battle for survival. They're getting their buts kicked more than they kick back.

Purlpleflood does not have a reputation for doing it all the time. Saying that is massively hypocritical.
Why am I responding? You aren't going to read what I post, or you won't understand it at the very least. Who wants to bet money that you'll post some weird fanboy video or 1d4chan picture?

Fully aware of that. Neither did I. It does not say that Chaos wont get reinforcements. It says they will have a difficult time getting to the surface. Once again though, you seem to ignore the fact that the reinforcements sent are likely not to be enough as the Imperium is already stretched as it is.
It's not a circle. Humanity is losing it's battle for survival. They're getting their buts kicked more than they kick back.

Whishful thinking. It's vastly more likely that things will continue going downhill for the Imperium. A change in millennium does little to improve their chances.

Not all of them are true. The overwhelming majority are boosted to hyperbolic levels of stupidity. And yes, you do use 1d4chan as a source, when you shouldn't. Just to make it clear, you haven't used it in this thread, but you have in others. Just to stop another potential argument.
and ask when I read some paragraph "when this happened in official fluff", but as always you don't read my posts to the end - why should I read yours?
Not sure what you're talking about here. I read your posts in full, you simply disagree with what I have to say, so you're jumping to conclusions in defense.
And you guys are all saying that Wikipedia in not official source which is idiotic to me since everything that exist in some encyclopedia is written down on Wikipedia.
It isn't. It's superseded by quotes from the actual texts. Think of it as a long chain of people before you in a game of chinese whispers. What is written in the book won't often be the same thing that appears on your screen.

Unhealthy Competition With Other Legions
|
On the results front:
40k wikia wrote:The campaign ran for eight weeks, in which more than forty thousand players registered, and submitted over a quarter of a million games results to the campaign website. The conclusion of the campaign resulted in a minor victory for Chaos. The line was held in many places but on the strategic level the Disorder players were considered to have consistently out-fought and out-maneuvered their opponents, and held over half of Cadia itself. The Chaos forces made slow but somewhat steady progress on many fronts, yet made no decisive victory, especially when a "backstage" plan to gain a foothold in the Eldar Webway system turned into a complete and total failure. In addition, Abaddon suffered severe losses to his fleet in the crusade.
Of course, the Terra system is the greatest fortress built, probably with the Cadian system in second place

Minor victory implies that neither actually gained anything, but still chaos did its damage. But space battle is done.

I never said what was on 4chan is true.
It's like propaganda...
It may have an element of truth but they twist it to make it funny.

It think you may be slightly twisting the meaning behind minor victory to seem like it wasn't actually a victory. Well, you know, it was a victory, which resulted in minor gains for Chaos. The Space Battle is not done. The Blackstone Fortress remains in Chaos hands, the Planet Killer may still be around, or something similar to it.

The Fang is not second. Cadia is second, or any of it's cities if you don't count it as a single fortress.

the Fang hasn't even come close to being taken.
Cadia is currently 1/2 occupied.
the Cadian Gate is also a string of Fortress Worlds. the Fang is a single planet.

I would like to refer you to Battle of the Fang. Two thirds of Cadia belongs to Chaos. I'm well aware of this, notice how I referred to Cadia as the planet Cadia itself.

Ok, I was thinking the Battle of the Fang was when the crazy high lord led a rebellion, not the Thousand Son attack.
