He ended up in a battle just like most other legions. It isn't all that much of "bu-hu" for Magnus if one reads A Thousand Sons and Prospero Burns, he was simply another casualty in the war. No more, no less.

The Emperor was an incredibly good leader. He was an amazing strategist, he created a golden age for his people and set the stage for an even brighter future. He also knew he could not always be there to lead his people so he ensured they could function without him. Then Magnus came and ensured he could not rule anymore, because Magnus broke the Webway meaning the Emperor had to spend every moment by holding back Daemons.

The Emperor was a bad father, yes, but he was not at all a bad leader. The only one who could come close to the Emperor when it comes to government was Roboute Guilliman. So Lorgar is the kid that has been picked on by everyone in school and Magnus is the quiet smart kid who spends his whole life in the Lirabary.

Also the only reason why Roboute Gulliman is so close, is because his chapter has been re-written by Your Spiritual Liege Matt Ward.
