Spider Mines
3 single Spider Mines can be planted on the ground. Very dangerous vs all ground units (except for other Vultures, Archons and SCVs), especially when planted at spawn. Cloaked units will also be attacked. Can be spotted by units with the ability of Detection. Units with a high rate of fire (such as Marines) can destroy the mines before they hit the target.

Irradiation
Any organic unit targeted will get radioactive for about 30 seconds. During this time it will lose up to 250 hit points (one by one) and meanwhile damages all air and ground units nearby. Even when cast on units immune to it, the radioactive cloud will affect organic units next to it. Defensive Matrix can slow the Irradiation down. Can be healed by a Medic.
Cost: 30
Used by: Science Vessel, Teleporting Vessel
EMP Shockwave
Decreases all energy and all Shield Points of any unit affected to 0. Useful to prevent units with energy from using their spells. Extremely dangerous when fired on Nexus since it's left vulnerable without any Shield Points.
