Spider Stalkers

Spider Stalker Automatons · Seeker Spiders

Carl's small automaton bombs stalk marked targets and form the backbone of the coordinated raids against sponsored hunters.

Story so far

Using Dr. Ratchet's automaton system, Carl produces spider-shaped mobile explosives suited to pursuit rather than fixed defense. They can move through a battlefield toward selected hunter targets.

The raid plan combines multiple crawler teams, anti-air measures, and sponsored weapons. Spider Stalkers supply Carl's repeatable autonomous pressure, forcing hunters to react even when he cannot approach them directly.

Appearance

Compact metal spider automatons carrying concealed explosive payloads.

Role

Spider Stalkers provide autonomous explosives for Carl's multi-team hunter raids.
