Dark Mountain Spiders... What team to use?

I will be building a team pulled from 2nd Edition fluff the Dark Mountain Spiders. What existing team of the LRB6 24 teams, should I use? What best fits the fluff of a team of Giant Spiders. Below are the suggestions from some people I talked with and I am open for ideas on the subject.

Nurgle- They are scary and ugly (Warriors), Strong and use webbing to tie people up (Beast of Nurgle), aggressive (Pestigors) and some smaller and some frail spiders (Rotters with decay)

Vampires- Strong female spiders (Vamps) that occasionally snack on the males (Thralls)

Slann- a band of jumping spiders (All Slann)

Thoughts? I know I am overthinking this but would love to read feedback from people. What team fits and feels the most fluff like to you?

Maybe an offshoot of a Goblin Tribe? Or a Savage Orc Tribe?

My initial thought was amazons

All the spiders are roughly the same, with a few specialist.
All of them having dodge is also, to me at least, fitting

Nothing scurries like gobbos :)
Then spider-riders as trolls.

Yup just take a look at the old GW forest goblins they have spider stuff all over them.
Spider riders as trolls is a great idea.
