II - Tactic
a) Overlord's Tactic
This Overlord spawn card is not really powerful as Bane Spiders can be killed easily but it can be used to add more cannon fooder on the map. The Master Bane Spider, with good rolls, can web or poison heroes, slowing the party and reducing the effect of healing potions.
b) Heroes' Tactic
When played by the Overlord, Heroes should try to take down the Master Bane Spider as soon as possible to avoid its nasty Web effect. Other, normal, Bane Spiders are not a real threat.
