IT IS NOW SAFE TO DOWNLOAD THIS MOD
I have updated to version 1.1. So the missing texture has been added and the mod is in full ready to install and play.

Hive Spiders

What are they? you ask.

Well they are that in which legend and myth has forgotten.

Why where they forgotten?

Would you wan't to remember a 30 foot tall spider?

Nah but really. This mod includes two new units and one small building. Along with a whole shlew of hand made models, textures, special effects, and some sounds "The rest of the sounds where stolen from another unnamed game".

The new units are:

War Spider
Good against military human units. They have a special which poisons it's victoms around it with a venomous gas. One might say they are a seige weapon to use against units rather then buildings. They have a bonus vs human soldiers and archers.

Queen "Mother" Spider
The big and bad one of them all. Like the War Spider she too can extract a venomous poison. But she can as well smack cavelry and myth units around like empty coke cans. She has a bonus vs cavelry and myth units.

Now for the small building:

Hive Eggs
You can say that they are really not buildings but more of a nature's booby trap. When they die they secreet a poison into the air infecting any in the area. But not only that, they are the bearers of the Mothers seed and can give birth to the War Spiders. With very low HP and armour one would have to decide on how to use these little gasous eggs.


Ok now that you have read all of this and thinking "Gee, ain't that just nice" You are probably wanting to see screens of this mod in action. Well below you will find just that.

Now that I have taken up five minutes of your time rambling on about this mod...How about jogging down to your local 7-11 AoMHeaven and downloading this nice pet which you will only have to feed once.

Ohh and this is my entry for the modding contest. All joking aside I do hope you enjoy this mod and your feed back would be greatly appreciated to help make version two better.

NOTE: Still waiting for the file to go through the download section. Once it does I will post a link here.

This Advertisment was sponcered by Little Johny's Pet Emporium. Where we don't hand out coupons no, but instead we give out rattlesnakes in a paper bag.

I like the new eggs.

BTW, did you ever get the Poison animation to work for the queen spider?
EDIT: nvm, I saw your PM.

Well I might as well go ahead and spill the beans for version two. Version two will come out with an additional unit called the worker spider. I wont go into detail on what it does but I feel it is pretty obvious. As far as a spider civ...This will be as close to a spider civ as it will get...sorry but you can only to so much with spiders lol.

Very much so...this will be the LAST time I make models with eight legs. Was a perfect learning experiance though.

Well for more ideas for a spider you could always have a web as a wall so when ever a unit gets to close he gets stuck :P.

hmm that isnt a bad idea...wouldnt be to hard to make either. Might try that out. Don't know how the units will get stuck but either way it just e a quick wall to make for defence lol. Sorta like the pallicide wall in AoK.

Also I ran accross a problem when going through my mods zip file...I updated the original post up top explaining everything.
