I’m a bit out of touch with eot chaos marks. I assume they work exactly the same as standard warrior marks nurgle -1 to hit, tzeentch +1 to ward etc.? If so, then those Minotaurs characters are plain filth!
It might be worth splitting the ungors into 2 units of 5. With them immune to psych, due to the mark, the smaller number in each unit won’t make too much difference and you then have more drops/chaff.

My only other thoughts are:
No dispell scroll. Bold move 😉.
With the Doombull, do you need the ogre blade as he is S6 base. S8 seems overkill. If you gave him the sword of striking and goretusks I think that comes to the same points (25+15 = 40 - unless the sword is more in the army book) and gives him ASF and re-rolls to hit against a lot of things and also AP so he has -4 to armour saves.
I really favour that sword on the Doombull as I’ve constantly been disappointed by his ability to hit things even with bucketloads of attacks.

Me too. But I think you nailed it. IIRC, the bonus they give to Beastmen is the same as Warriors.
There is a difference, sometimes, between (1) Beastmen/Warriors on one side and (2) Demons/Daemons on the other side.

All, 6th/7th/8th Marks do start to blend.

Why? It's just a plain jane 6+ ward save. Did I miss something?

I mean, a unit of 6 Minotaurs w. GWs is filthy because if you get them to charge a chaff unit or 2 and they start stacking BloodGreed...
Well, 2 ranks of dudes with 6 attacks each all at S6 is filthy, yaaaaas.

--But that has little if anything to do with the MoTz.

It was a sorta cost effective R&F dude with a 5+ ward.
