Balance Machaka

Poison missles have a very nasty unbalancing bug associated with them.

Your point about poison missiles seems right. Then only warriors (that are javelinmen in vanilla) should have them. Basic ones are enough for militias, and heavyer troops (machaka-spear ones) should not have javelins at all. Spider riders with poison bows, on other side, are not too massable and even buggy poison seems ok for them.

As an another question - is there a mythological base to create astral-using spider (maybe to replace those ape heroes of Machaka)?
