Hey gang, trying to squeeze 3 of these into my 1850 list if possible and want to know if they are worth it. It would be replacing 1 of 3 Annihilation barges as well as a night scythe the contains 10 deathmarks and a Cryptik despair. I figure with his veil, no need to dive them out of a flyer when I currently have 2 flyers carrying troops around as it is.

please let me know!!

depends on the rest of the list... do you run some scarabs? if so then spyders can work really well - one fun thing to try out once might be a full "scarab farm", i.e. 9 spyders pooping out scarabs all game. Without scarabs to add bases to, I don't like spyders too much since they kinda lack mobility and don't really do too much the rest of the army can't do better (like busting tanks - we have gauss for that... or tarpitting something - we have said scarabs for that...).
Just my opinion though - feel free to try them out!

The ONLY thing i consider Scarabs for is the slight improvement in Psychic defense with the Gloom Prism but ultimately no unless, as stated above, your'e going for the full Scarab Farm.
