This mod adds new tiers of Armoured Biters which have the same progression as Category biters from Schall Endgame Evolution.
New Category Snappers are displayed in Schall Endgame Evolution UI.
Mod settings from Schall Endgame Evolution will also be applied to Snappers.
Both Armoured Biters and Schall Endgame Evolution mods are required.

This extends Schall Endgame Evolution support of Armoured Biters.
Leviathan Snappers are removed.

For a better balance of high tier snappers, armoured biters are nerfed:
1) Resistances are slightly decreased.
2) Added fire and electric vulnerabilities.
3) Behemoth snapper's health and attack are decreased.
4) The size of snappers is increased to compensate for their bigger health and strength in combination with slower speed. (can be disabled)

When playing with Milestones there are new milestones with category snappers.
For existing saves, you should click Reset in Milestones UI to bring new milestones.

There is also an optional balance change named "Fair pollution cost" which is disabled by default.
It makes category snappers pollution to join attack values scale with their strength in more linear way.
This may be considered as Difficulty 0 pollution price setting which is more fair to player.
For example, pollution values to join attack for Category X snapper with 320000HP:
Difficulty 9: 1000 pollution (Same as behemoth snapper)
Difficulty 1: 7000 pollution
Fair pollution cost enabled: 34012 pollution

To apply "Fair pollution cost" to normal category biters use Schall Endgame Evolution Tweaks mod.
This mod also recolors category biters to add a bit of diversity to the game.
