FROM THE DARKNESS A TERRIFYING SIGHT…

Infesting the land in the places the sun rarely touches: mountain caves, the dankest forests, lonely ruins from the folk that came before, this race of giant spiders is an ever-present threat to the free peoples.

Solitary spiders will lie in wait for weary travelers while larger clutters will be so bold to attack villages en masse. Mountain goblins have even been known to ally with the beasts to ride their enemies down. The local militias stand wary and sometimes the High Queen herself organizes hunts to winnow their putrid numbers.

This hard plastic box set allows you to field up to 12 Giant Spiders, 12 smaller spiders and with sci-fi part options for every giant spider in the box. Also, when paired with WAACF004 Goblin Warband the giant spiders can work as cavalry.

Guy Bowers of Wargames Soldiers and Strategy Magazine has developed a handy guide with his strategy for building our spiders. You can read it: Spider Assembly Guide.

Models require assembly and painting. Bases are not included. Product contents may vary from photos.

Big Gerry of On Table Top builds the spiders and provides a comprehensive review along with tips and tricks:

Mostly used them for conversions

Excellent sculpts at a good value. A lack of assembly instructions makes them a bit frustrating to put together, but there's videos online that run through the process.

Goblin mounts

Great models. The larger ones will make great mounts for goblins. The smaller ones will work wonders as swarm monsters

Giant Spiders with a twist and a bonus

Spiders are so terrifying that a one-inch spider can reduce a 6-foot man to tears. Imagine a spider the size of a car. This set gives you exactly that, models you have to warn your players about lest they faint, or refuse to approach the table. This set makes 12 giant spiders - each has two legs that have square lugs, allowing them to support the creature while you attach the other legs. There are also 12 smaller giant spiders, and a pair of victims wrapped in webbing. The twist is that there are bits of Sci-Fi armour and arms with blasters, so you can have swarms with guns overrunning troops in Death Fields as well. And there's a bonus - The Goblin set has an option for spider riders, so you can combine the sets.
