Well, looking at the new Cabal grimoire cards, we can see that the Emperor really has a lot of power. Ta'aun was ordered by the Emperor to assault the Dreadnaught, and he then knew he had to do it, even though it was foolish to do so. Valus Tlu'urn suggested mutiny as a way out. He suggested mutiny to the most successful cabal commander in the solar system as the way out to avoid the foolish order from the Emperor. Perhaps that's enough to show how much power the emperor has.
