Strategy
Playing with:

Since Spidaurs are tanky and others can mount them, it is best to have a unit with low defense mount a Spidaur. This will allow those units to perform their actions more safely in fights. However, mounting takes a round and the mounted Spidaur will move 1 hex less per turn. It is best not to mount at the beginning if you want to get placements up fast.
