Adds a playable Arachne race

REQUIRES HUMANOID ALIEN RACES INSTALLED AND ACTIVATED BEFORE THIS MOD

Centuries ago, alien spacecraft crashlanded on the Arachne homeworld.
The Arachne saw the potential of space travel to expand their colony to outer space.
The Arachne’s technology advanced a few hundred years from researching the alien spacecraft artifacts!
Now, they officially launched a few dozen colony ship with you as part of them.
The mission? Establish a colony. Expand. Conquer.

Some Arachne lost their minds being stuck in ships for too long, they have forgotten their mission and they have formed their own militia faction.
Beware, they will come, they will attack you…
