(TFT) Giant Spider (Spitting)

["Cas Liber" <casliber@ozemail.com.au>]

I've been reading more about cool different austrlaian spiders to my
daughter, here's another.


Giant Spider (Spitting)
ST:12+                       MA:12
DX:14                        Armour:0
IQ:1
One-hex brownish spiders that attack by bite for 1 point of damage,
penetrating armour of 2 HS/A or less and delivering a weakfish poison (3/ST
or 1 die damage, deliverable at a rate of 1ST/turn). Their cunning trick is
to spit a glob of sticky glue which envelops and hinders the victim - treat
as a thrown weapon, with the spider having the talent of the same name. A
successful hit will reduce the victim's DX by 2 and MA by 4. The gluey silk
can be removed by vinegar over 6 turns or in water over half an hour.
While not overly dangerous to adventurers in nature, these spiders have been
trained by some races (generally kobolds or goblins) in battle to greatly
hinder enemies, rendering them vulnerable to missile and pole weapons, as
well as molotails..
