Yes, this is all part of how the Wo D is, as its name implies, a Crapsack World. This is because the * real* Sabbat, the True Black Hand or Tal'Mahe'Ra, is a conspiracy that purposely created and is manipulating the regular Sabbat as patsies in order to * support* the return of the Antediluvians.
Look at me! I'm a monster! I'm a Lord of the Night! Do my bidding - wait, I'm dead, how did that happen?" As Betram Tung put it, "You ask me, the Sabbat make no sense.
The vast majority of the Sabbat rank-and-file sucks not only at killing Antes but at even surviving for more than a year or two before getting themselves slaughtered by the Order of Leopold or the Technocracy or a bunch of random cops hunting down "maniac gangbangers on PCP". Then again, given the cosmic power that the Antedeluvians throw around, that just made the Sabbat like everybody else. When the Antedeluvians actually arose, the Sabbat was useless against them. The guys known for saying that they hunt and kill Antes. They're being hunted by their stronger, eviler, utterly scary brothers so they know their antedilluvian is "alive" and kicking and killing them, but choose not to join the Sabbat, the guys known for hunting and killing Antes. Part of that is the Nosferatu being mostly in the Camarilla. So why does the Camarilla deny their existence to a man? Two clans came up out of nothing through Ante diablerie in the last few hundred years, and a major faction is saying "yes, they're out there, controlling us". It bugs me that in oWoD VtM, there was any doubt about the existence of Antediluvians.
