Sure, take your black/red/green dragons and two other stacks (archmages, demonologists wouldn't be bad, or inquisitors/demonologits). Use two stacks of stone skinned dragons to wail away on the spider (green and red dragons, in my opinion), use the black draggies and the archers to kill spiders and otherwise support (don't have them shoot the spider).

Should work pretty well.

cheers for that m8i used red and black dragons,knights and paladins as tanks and archmages,it worked perfect..The tanks was hiting the spider so damn hard lol that the fight was over in a few rounds I used phatom like once ,stoneskined the tanks plus the shield from mages and fight was over in no time ..oohhh and very important MASSHASTE pawns ..as soon as he moved masshaste and all and i was back on smashing him next round

on low level u can also use shamans to fill up the board
and then shoot the spider from safe distance:p

Use summons,summoning units or stone skinned units, also high posion resistances would be good since his poison hits realy hard. Royal snake from distance is good as well

I was weak. I used Troll cheese.

One thing that was left out of all the descriptions I've read on that approach is that the use of the Teleport spell was a MUST for me! After the second spider flip, there were too many spider stacks in place and dropping to clear a path to the other side.
