	The Snakebites ~~are~~ somewhat of a mixed bag.

In 8e, The Snakebites were somewhat of a mixed bag. Their abilities don't have any synergy, unlike the other clans, but they're thematic as hell. 9e...kind of fixed that. Not by much, but it definitely put things back the way it should've been: The Clan is tankier than usual with it's entirely re-done Kultur (though most of your units are base toughness 5 so it's not ''that'' big of a change), but it's big new addition is for SQUIG units, which now get a +1 to wounds whenever they charge or do heroic interventions, and given how a bunch of SQUIG units are surprisingly useful, it can a surprisingly dangerous army. Further, their Warlord Trait is essentially a chance to survive getting one-shot. They're still very situational and almost require the use of Squig units to be dangerous, but they also have one of the best named characters the Orkz have access to, so it somewhat evens out.
