Pretty big spoiler for fury of Magnus below Minor spoiler for Death and the End Part 1 You have been warned.

During their semi final confrontation in the Throne Room while the Siege of Terra was going on Big E presents Magnus an offer to rejoin him. The whole package with new Legion and all. That could have given the Loyalists the biggest edge in the entire heresy by turning Magnus into the Duracel battery for the Golden Throne he was meant to be and freeing up Big E to take to the field and slap some sense into his sons. Yet the deal is spoiled by requiring Magnus to sacrifice his sons and further drama ensues. So why not tell Magnus the tastiest mouthwatering lie you could possibly come up with to place him on the throne and then deal with his sons later? It is later shown that a transfer of the worlds best lawn chair can be done under these circumstances without terra breaking in half. Just do it without sacrificing your literal right hand man and eliminate one of your major threats in the process
