	*'''''Limited Movement Options'''''-Splintered Fang has no abilities which grant them ANY type of movement benefit. No increased movement ability. No crazy ninja-jumps like those [[Cypher_Lords\|Hysian]] use. No flying around the battlefield like pissed off chickens. Nothing. The only way to improve their movement is through the Universal Abilities, '''[Double] Rush''' and '''[Quad] Rampage'''. Outside of these abilities, they have to slog around the battlefield like normal saps.		*'''''Limited Movement Options'''''-Splintered Fang has no abilities which grant them ANY type of movement benefit.

	*''Fighter Commentary''--Clearbloods are your standard roster-filling Fighters. They have very average stats and really offer nothing special. They would be auto-includes in most lists based on their points cost alone, but honestly Serpents fulfill the same purpose and do a much better job at pretty much everything the Clearblood does apart from staying alive (and, let's be honest, the Clearblood isn't exactly offering a huge increase in durability compared to the snakes). They have a role to fill in campaigns, as they can hold Artefacts of Power and Lesser Artefacts (unlike Serpents) and so can become much more valuable throughout the course of a campaign over snakes. In Open and Matched play, Serpents are a much better value for your points.		*''Fighter Commentary''--Clearbloods are your standard roster-filling Fighters.

	*''Fighter Commentary''--For 5 points more you can give a Clearblood a shield, increasing their Toughness up to meager 4 and granting them the '''[Double] Fanged Buckler''' ability. In return, you sacrifice 2 attacks. This guy is better than the regular Clearblood, but that's not saying much. Again, outclassed by Serpents for points. He's more useful in Campaign, where he can be given items to boost his viability (Healing Potions, Ironoak Seeds, Ur-Gold Sigils, and Rune-Etched Vambraces can help with this).		*''Fighter Commentary''--For 5 points more you can give a Clearblood a shield, increasing their Toughness up to meager 4 and granting them the '''[Double] Fanged Buckler''' ability.

	*''Fighter Commentary'':-He's the only leader available to the Splintered Fang so you ''MUST'' take him. Not the flashiest of Warband leaders in the slightest. On paper, it looks like he can't do much. He has average movement, toughness and attacks and very low wounds for a leader. His value comes from his ability, '''[Double] Ensnaring Net'''. As discussed above, this ability only really works in conjunction with other fighters to isolate and combo mid-ranged attacks on high-value targets. Like with most other fighters in this Warband, don't commit this dude to heavy fighting until you have the correct fighters around you and in place for proper combo synergy. This isn't a leader who can wade into combat on his own and start dealing with the pain. You should play him (and most of the Warband), defensively and cautiously but once the timing is right to strike, then go in for the kill and commit to it. You worship a Snake god so think like a Snake. Wait for the right moment and finish something with one lethal strike.		*''Fighter Commentary'':-He's the only leader available to the Splintered Fang so you ''MUST'' take him.

	If they appeal to you, you can grab a box of [https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Warcry-Chaotic-Beasts-2019 these beasts], which will be used in some Twists. You can add them as thralls and minions, but you're probably better off taking one of the other allies mentioned above. If you're playing in a group, consider splitting the cost with another player and split them evenly between you two. Harpies aren't going to do much for you. Their Fly is nice, but for their points, you're better off taking something else. Raptoryx can be made effective if you're running them in the same Battlegroup in sets of 2+ and backed up by a Serpent Caller to '''[Triple] Snake Charmer''' them, but Serpents are far more cost-efficient. If you managed to get the Warcry Starter Box before it sold out, then you already have these, so adding them to your warband at no extra cost can work if you're of semitic origin.
