Overview
The Spider Mine is a abilty that is used by the Vulture unit in StarCraft and StarCraft: Brood War. To b able to use Spider Mines you have to research the Spider Mine Upgrade at the Factory. A vulture can deploy up to 3 for one vulture. Once you set a vulture mine into the ground, it stays there untill an enemy unit comes near it; then the mine will unborrow and skitter into the opponent. They do 125 splash damage and have 25 HP. When burrowed, they can only be seen by detector units and are able to see and attack cloaked units themselves.
