Spider SDR-A

Overview
The Spider SDR-A "Anansi" is the Hero variant of the Spider. It has a mixture of energy and ballistic hardpoints in the arms, and a missile hardpoint in the center torso. Two AMS provide superior missile protection. Six Jump Jets place its JJ capabilities on par with the SDR-5K.

Like all Hero 'Mechs, the Anansi can only be purchased with. It does save you from having to make big purchases by including some of the best equipment available. An XL 240 allows you almost reach the maximum speed possible. Endo-Steel and Dual Heat Sinks are already installed on the 'Mech as well. The Anansi also provides the same 30% bonus that all Hero 'Mechs do.
