The Spinblade is a support structure that is deployed from the Foehn Cloud Piercer. It is a device that makes nearby units with windspin engines to be able to accelerate at greater velocities, resulting in a significant increase to their movement speed. It is especially useful to support Foehn's fast attack units, to quickly pull back forces, and even to supplement mining paths.

The following units are affected by Spinblades; all these units leave a blue trail while moving as a subtle indicator (the Recon Drones also do so, but are unaffected by Spinblades):

• Clairvoyant
• Zorbtrotter/Zorbfloater
• Eureka
• Minermite
• Draco Light Tank
• Jackal Racer
• Roadrunner
• Sweeper
• Tarchia Cannon
• Warturtle
• Swordfish
• Whipray
• Leviathan

The cut Windbelts are affected by Spinblades in its mobile form.

AI behavior

The AI does not use Spinblade as a support power; instead the AI builds it directly. This means that the AI will never place a Spinblade further from their own base.
