Nurgle great weapons are the best because they strike last and give you a -1 to hit them, so they're able to take a beating better, which means more surviving models, which means more attacks back.
Khorne is a fantastic mark. But, while S6 sure is tasty, it's awfully hard to go from I5 to ASL.

Chosen are great. People used to run the Chosenstar quite often. And for a little while, I saw people trying the Prince Factory, with lots of little units of Chosen, with Champions, and War Shrines, trying to turn them into Daemon Princes. Which was stupid.
But on their own? They're a tough-as-nails ultra-elite unit.

If you run a block or two of Warriors, Chosen, and some Trolls, you'll be hard-pressed to have "Marauders everywhere", since that's already a lot of points.

Big blocks of the guys don't work very well anymore, thanks to their huge points-increase. I could see them working pretty well as little kamikaze units, though. 10 Marauders with flails and the Mark of Khorne for 15 WS4 S5 I4 attacks is pretty decent. Taking 4 of those would still give you that tribal feel of a bunch of crazed half-naked vikings rushing across the field.

It sounds like a decent list, at the very least. Chimeras, Hellcannons, and Chariots often find their way into Warrior lists as well.

If you're going with one Chaos God, I would point out that Khorne is a fun theme, but with Frenzy, you'll have less tactical choices. It'll cost you a game here and there, but more importantly, it might get kind of boring.
