Play Notes
A recurring horror for Hero players is and was always crossing mutliple![[-me_wi-]](./images/smilies/me_wi.png "Wilderness")
in his site paths. A typical Animals & Spiders hazard deck will you show why. The creatures itself aren't too furious compared to Drakes / Dragons you will meet often in double . But there are quite a lot of different enhancment cards to aid Animal and Spider attacks. Combinded they can cause really nasty prowess with a hell load of strikes. Half-creatures named Shelob and Spider of the Môrlat do fit perfect in such a deck as well as do events like Wake of War and Full of Forth and Rage [Animals get: +4 prowess / +2 strikes while Spiders get: +4 prowess / +3 strikes].
To let your creepers rain uppon your opponents company you will need some additional hazard limit. Therefor you got Daelomin at Home as in almost each hazard deck but you got some more features: Bairanax at Home and Monstrosity of Diverse Shape. While Bairanaxe at Home will increase the hazard limit for companies facing Animal attack the Monstrosity of Diverse Shape let you play the same (not defeated) Animal creature from your discard pile again.
Once you got too many enhancment cards on the table, your opponent most likely won't travel through more than one anymore. So you need to either create some with Withered Lands (that would only target one company) or you can play Das Pack vor der Tür that let you play non-unique Animals & Spiders at ![[-me_bh-]](./images/smilies/me_bh.png "Border Hold")
or ![[-me_bl-]](./images/smilies/me_bl.png "Border Land")
while Doors of Night is in play.
There are some decks you won't hit with Animals & Spiders. So make sure your sideboard is full of usefull and nasty stuff against![[-me_cs-]](./images/smilies/me_cs.png "Coastal Sea")
