Warhammer 40k
Necrons - Canoptek Spyder
Description
The Canoptek Spyder is one of the Necrons’ most iconic and reliable battlefield support constructs, engineered during the ancient wars of the Necrontyr to maintain the mechanical legions without the need for living technicians. Towering over most infantry, this multi-limbed automaton moves with an unsettling mix of precision and insect-like fluidity, its carapace humming with arcane energy harvested from stasis vaults deep within Necron tomb complexes.
Designed primarily as a repair and maintenance unit, the Canoptek Spyder can restore damaged Necron warriors and constructs mid-battle, welding living metal back into place with eerie efficiency. Yet despite its industrial origins, it is far from defenceless: Spyders can be outfitted with particle beamers, twin-linked flux weapons or devastating ranged emitters that tear through armour and infantry alike. The techno-parasitic swarms they generate—fresh Canoptek Scarabs spawned directly from their internal fabrication chambers—add an additional strategic layer, overwhelming enemies or disabling vehicles with alarming speed.
On the battlefield, a Canoptek Spyder functions as both a force multiplier and a looming threat. Its presence enhances the durability of nearby Necron units, supports advancing phalanxes and anchors defensive lines. Whether reinforcing Warriors, accompanying Wraiths or protecting a valuable objective, the Spyder brings unmatched utility. Within any Necron army, it stands as a symbol of their relentless, self-sustaining war machine—silent, emotionless and utterly tireless.
