I have some Chaos Warriors stuff I was thinking of painting up and selling to clear some space and make a little cash. But how to mark said minis to make them the most attractive to buyers?
What are all the cool kids doing these days? Tzeentch, Khorne, Great Weapon, Halberd? Other stuff?
And are Chaos Knights in style any more?
Thanks for any feedback you guys might have for me.

What I think kids like these days is that they like Minecraft, Call of duty black-ops 2, Call of duty ghost, and Car racing games!

Chaos warriors and chaos knights are generally being marked Nurgle more often because the new book gives units with Mark of Nurgle a -1 to be hit in combat now, which is huge when combined with their being WS5 (superior to the 6+ or +1 ward save of Tzeetnch and the +1 attack in the front row with frenzy but the issues with frenzy baiting). I've also seen unmarkd warriors as a character bunker due to paying a point cost per model in a market unit. Nurgle is a good mark for characters and units. The only exception is mark of Tzeentch excellent for models and units with a high base ward save (chaos lord on a disc of tzeentch) or the ability to gain a good base ward save (say with MR) and mark of slaanesh is attractice for certain fast cav units and some mages. Characters cannot join units with different marks than their mark, so some people are running unmarked characters or units at times. Also, Nurgle is a good lore for chaos warrior mages and characters with Nurgle are advantageous in the new army book.
With lower leadership of warriors, mark of khorne (frenzy) seems less popular due to issues with baiting units.
The cost effectiveness of skulltakers (Jugg mounted chaos knights) is causing people to run them instead of chaos knights and Juggernaughts are Mark of Khorne models. The cost effectiveness of chariots and ability to run chaos charots in core allotment is reducing the amount of use of chaos warriors in the current armies.
The two most common generals are either: chaos lord of tzeentch (fighting or mage) on a disc or a daemon prince of nurgle.
