After Kinboat and his marvelous Spider units and vintage Dark Sheer's Giant Spider, it's my turn to take a shot at these marvelous 8 legged freaks.
Of course, they all come from the various Toho universes :
Shōwa Kumonga
In the pleasing and silly Son of Godzilla (Jun Fukuda - 1967) first appeared the giant spider Kumonga, attacking Minya, the supposed offspring of Gojira on Sogell Island. It later appeared in Destroy All Monsters (Ishirō Honda - 1968), controlled by the invaders before fighting King Ghidorah with all other released monsters. Later Shōwa appearance were all stock footage.
Beside its 45 meters high, Kumonga has another particularity : its ability to shoot its silks by its mouth.
Millenium Kumonga
Another version of Kumonga appeared in 2004 in Godzilla: Final Wars (Ryuhei Kitamura). Although slightly smaller (only 35 meters high
) than 1967 Kamunga, the new version is much more agile and colorful.
Giant Widows
In the American animated series Godzilla: The Series (1998-2000) appeared yet another giant spider, unrelated to Kumonga.
Bigger than Kumonga (50 meters), the spider was able to fight furiously Zilla Jr.

This unit comes in two sizes.
The Giant Widow spawned two types of smaller spiders :
Of course, all these are made for Modzilla although anyone is free to use them.
The web looks great in GIF and Civ3Flc previews but less in the actual game - I don't know why exactly. I might have to revisit it or re-render the units without it.
