From SporeWiki, the knowledge base dedicated to Spore

A Hex Is the largest of the Zyyy walkers, It's a Hexapodal Walker with a weird leg configuraion, It has 3 sections to each leg and It lowers It's body towards the ground when loading up or trying to hide because of It's sheer size When It puts It's foot down the pressure under It Is almost 5 times that of gravity on earth, It can be seen and heard from miles away, It lumbers 500 metres tall and only 2 exist, 1 Has been decomisioned and Is now a huge building sitting on one of the 2 moons of Zyyy, In case of trouble It can lift up and walk off somewhere else.

The only noticable problems are, First It's extremly slow but Because of the size, It's legs move In big strides though so this makes up for that, Second Is that even though It's made out of the super carbon (natural Zyyy carbon) that Is extremley strong and light, It's still extremly heavy because of the ammount of It, It would be Impossible to build one of these on earth because of our carbon. 3rd, It's huge, put enough force on one side and It'll topple...as If It's not bad enough for the Zyyo Inside think about whatever the heck It crushes, It can be seen coming from BEHIND the horizen because It's that tall, and as If that Isn't bad enough most animals on Zyyy are extremly good sighted and can ajust how far they can see.

The upsides are: It's strong and It takes more firepower than most offending platoons can offer to knock It over, It's practically Invincible, No one has been able to destroy either of them, It carrys lots of quaduple and biped walkers and a lot more Zyyo, It can be used to explore and habitat things such as unhabbitable moons and can then terraform It, although It does takes a hell of a lot of space craft to get It off a planet.

The domes on top are little park/forest like places With a lot of C02 Trees, A geneticly modified type of tree which takes In as much C02 as possible and gives out an equal amount of Oxygen. The tube down the middle has a path through the middle, Houses at one side and shops and such at the other, These are the luxary quarters.

There are plans to completly redesign the way a HEX Is built by making It lighter by thining the walls, At the moment the walls are 4 feet thick but this Is too much so by making them 4 Inches thick they can make It about 16 times lighter and It'll be Just as strong, Actually It will be stonger, The extra thickness was putting strain of the outer wall so It will be thiner and stronger AND lighter, Boosters may be fited to the feet so they could use the legs as rockets. They may be made longer and have an extra set of domes.
