Biotech mechanoid: Arachnid

About:

Adds two new craftable mechanoids. They will also appear in raids.

• Arachnid

Required research: High mechtech Material cost: 100x Steel, 40x Plasteel, 4x Component, 1x Standard subcore Bandwidth cost: 3 Weapon: Toxic needle gun A spider-like mechanoid that utilizes poisonous ranged and melee attacks. If an enemy gets too close, the arachnid can release toxic gas in attempt to repel them, and does so uncontrollably when it dies.

• Spiderling

Required research: Basic mechtech Material cost: 50x Steel, 1x Basic subcore Bandwidth cost: 1 Weapon: None A spiderling is an arachnid mechanoid whose gestation was terminated after the first cycle. It is too small to carry any proper weapon, but its light frame makes it harder to hit and allows it to lunge at the enemy. Both of these mechanoids:

• have a unique anatomy
• generate less waste when recharging because they use toxin weapons
