I don't get the traitor primarchs man. Who looks at this guy and is like "whelp, this looks like a good man to follow."

I don't know man, this depiction of Horus looks like somebody I would follow. Look at the charisma of that face.

It's spelled "Chlamydia" not Charisma.

ugly or not, the Horus Heresy books make it clear that any one of the primarchs could tell you to ram a chainsword up your nose and you'd have to be a Space Marine to have enough willpower to even question the order. Horus could drive any normal human to their knees by merely standing in the same room. they were demigods, put together with warpcraft - the latter detail probably explains their magical ability to influence people.

Yeah but how would that even work with a fellow primarch? Sure, some of them had their reasons to go traitor, but shouldn't they rebel in their own name instead of this schmuck?

A few of them rebelled because the Emperor was a crappy father and Logar was a religious jerk of an a-hole. Logar would have failed if he couldn't find a better leader then he was.

because Horus' mindblowing skills at leadership, tactics and strategy were needed to create an organized rebellion, an actual army that could truly threaten the nigh-invincible Imperium. the traitor primarchs (grudgingly) put aside their differences to follow Horus because without him the whole rebel force, caught in infighting and general disorder, would be fragmented and hunted down before they could get to Terra. united they could stand, divided they'd fall. this of course created problems for Horus - imagine trying to keep someone like Angron from messing up every situation he's involved in.
