Spelaean Scorpions are upgraded tier-IV units of the Hive faction. They can be recruited from Chitinous Ziggurat II.

They are one of the upgrades of the Scorpion, the other being the Volcanic Scorpion.

Description

Spelaean scorpions were once a rare sight for those who dwell on the surface, as they inhabit only the darkest corners of the Jadame caverns. However, even if you have encountered these small but defensive critters before, I have one piece of advice should you ever face this monstrosity infused with the Hive’s magic: run.
