Thing is, that doubles the number of different units in the Chaos book - rhino
with Mark, rhino without mark, raider with mark, raider without mark, and so
on. Me, I like simplicity.

How about the "Mark of..." is a Special Card, costs 25 points per model in the
detachment you apply it to and gives a low-level benefit (+2 CAF, 5+ psychic
save, etc). Yes, that makes it expensive to Mark an entire legion - sounds
reasonable. It would therefore be most used on the special models like Chaos
Champions or greater daemons.

Hm. I'll think about that, but it sounds good at first glance. A little
harsher than I'd first envisioned, but if we give each power pretty good units
of a single type (close-combat, ranged, etc.) then it'd be a more even
trade-off. Gimmie a little time to mull things over, k?
