The Colonial Spider Attack Weapons, are an excellent way of delivering bombs and other traps into an enemy base. The Spiders can be configured in one of several ways, most of which are offensive. The Spiders were originally designed to infest an enemy base, but during a test on a Military World in the Colonial Empire, the Spiders went haywire and the entire world was lost, and now the Spiders there are kept in check by 24-hour orbital check.

X-AID089-Infiltrator
The Infiltrator is a less individiual form of the original Spider Attack Weapons. It is controlled via a Drone Control Center and is used to incapacitate enemy defenses by rendering Soldiers unconscious and hacking into control systems. The major disadvantage of these Spiders is there susceptibility to projectile weaponry and their frequent breakdowns. It is common, that unlike Terror Drones (below), a Infiltrator may lose connection with the signal from the DCC and fall apart, whereas a Terror Drone has limited AI intelligence, and is made of solid sheets of metal as opposed to blocks. Infiltratorss are also capable of reshaping themselves and of changing their colour for disguise. One Controller can control up to one Infiltrator at a time.
X-ATD083-Terror Drone
The Terror Drone is an Anti-Tank specialisation of the Spider. While it lacks the ability to climb walls due to its increased size, it is specially designed to break into any type of vehicle and tear it apart from the inside. It is very, very fast and controlled from a Drone Control Center, which is built on a planet when Colonials invade and a more permanent installation is set up when they colonise the planet. The Terror Drone is built of Solid metal as opposed to blocks like the Infiltrator, but cannot reshape itself.
X-ADM081-Defender
The Defender Spider is a simple robot which moves of its own accord, and reports any unidentifiable Soldiers to the DCC. If the DCC tells the Defender the target is a threat, the Defender will attempt to incapacitate the enemy, and calls in Sentry Drones. A very simple Spider which is not very threatening at all.
X-ATM092-Black Widow
The X-ATM092 Black Widow is an extremely powerful machine, and only one is granted to each Army General due to cost. The Black Widow is capable of independent thought to an extent. It remains dormant until activated by the General of the Army's personal activation code. When activated, the Black Widow hunts down any living thing not implanted with a Helghast Identifier Chip. It has many forms of attack, allowing it to target almost any target. First it has a simple Twin-Linked Colonial Heavy Machinegun mounted under its 'fangs'. When the head moves up it reveals this weapon and fires, spraying out hundreds of bullets in seconds. Next it has two mandibles in between each of its forelegs which garb and crush or snap victims or bring them up towards the 'mouth', where they are then crushed flat. Its third weapons are the two for legs themselves, its two mandible reach out and it uses them as legs before raising bothe forelegs. The feet shoot out and are capable of piercing reinforced concrete or over turning tanks. They then retract and the Black Widow returns to its normal stance.
Finally, is the newly designed Ray Cannon. Using the same technology as cutting lasers and explosive lasers, the X-ATM092 spreads out its four legs and raises its head. The Ray Cannon protrudes out and charges. After 10 seconds, it fires in an arc, slicing through anything in the way. The ground also explodes as the Ray hits it, adding to the damage.
The Black Widow is weak in that it is very slow and heavy and unable to target Air units. It is also a very large target, but that's about it.
Delivery Spiders
These Spiders are capable of delivering all sorts of devices into an enemies base, bombs, nukes, spy devices. They have no method of defence, and are slow and large. There is only really two types of Delivery Spiders, the simple Delivery Spiders, with a large back for carrying and protecting all sorts of items. There is also the Egg-Carrier.
The Egg-Carrier Spider
If the Colonials are about to lose a position, and have no hopes of taking it back, they may attempt to make it uninhabiable by delivering a Xenomorph Egg. The Xenomorph is a deadly lifeform found in the area of space owned by the Colonial Empire. When a single Queen Egg is delivered using this Spider, a Hive can begin, and if allowed to grow, can go out of control. The Egg(s) must be kept in stasis to prevent Facehugger escape. On board ships, this is easily done, but when an Egg must be removed, Egg Carriers enter the hold and pick up a single egg each, place it in the specially designed carrier compartment on their backs, where the egg remains in stasis.
