Abysia I’ve tried, but I haven’t found anything that works particularly well, especially versus high strength Indies. Ctis I’m determined to master, somehow. Both those races rate highly on this board and it annoys me I can’t make them work.
I get the impression that in MP it really helps to have a SC pretender. I have yet to be really successful with any SC pretender, excluding Arco/Nataraja. They invariably get horrible afflictions or die. I give them decent items, especially defensive ones. My failing here is likely not building them to take advantage of key defensive spells. Or maybe I just suck.

With Abysia you have to bloodhunt heavily . You can get then ice devils / arch devils easy and either hoard vampire lords or soul contracts .
The blood gives you good flexibility :
-The best overall weapon , the blood thorn .
-Arch/Ice devils .
-Best massproduceable troops , for Abysia's mages Devils and Fiends of Darkness are easy to produce in masses , especially a soul contract massproduction is attractive .
-Some of your warlocks can get Earth , then you can start hoarding earth bloodstones as well and plan on casting FotA / produce lots of dwarfen hammers .
With SC pretender : There is the VQ . Horrible expensive but because of her immortality she works extremely well .
In SP normally even an unequipped VQ is enough to reliable kill/rout 300-500 Ai troops .
A Ghostking works quite good as SC too and he is quite cheap so you save a lot of points for scales .
There are iirc 8 different tartarians .
A tip : Get the various good dominions documents if you don't already have , especially :
-Zen's MIQR + SCQR
-Edi's Unit's ID excel chart
-The unitattributes excel chart
-Saber Cherry's Dice Odds
All extremely helpful
