i didn't mean physically destroy/blow up a planet (which i doubt even emps could do), but rather things like tampering with weather to create massive storm-fronts, or tampering with tectonic fissures inducing tsunami's, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. such tampering doesn't require too much to set up a catastrophic cascade of a planet's ecosystem, thus destroying any habitability.

magnus didn't destroy fenris, or have it destroyed, because he was still loyal at that point. and even as prospero was under attack he held off any defensive action for as long as his conscience could handle, because he still saw russ as his brother.

even though lorgar actively worships the gods i still think magnus' ability would pummel lorgar's. of the primarchs who were actively psykers, not passive like angron and such, lorgar was one of the weakest and had very little control of his ability. he may be significantly more capable with his abilities now but magnus has also been learning and refining his abilities for 10,000 years too. and on the scale of psychicness, i'd say magnus was/is an alpha plus given that he has pretty much snapped a titan in half, pre-daemonhood, and emps would be an alpha plus at the higher end of that classification, or an alpha plus plus.
