CrabMod is a fan-made game mode that elaborates upon the Spycrab meme. The BLU Team takes the role of a migrating herd of "Spycrabs" while the RED Team consists of Huntsman-wielding Snipers called the "Hunters".
Contents
Gameplay
The goal of this mode is for the Spycrabs to reach the other side of the map before the Hunters can eliminate them. The game begins with only 2-3 Hunters, with the number increasing depending on how many players are present. The game is over when one of two things happen: A) All Spycrabs are killed, resulting in victory for the RED team, or B) The Spycrab(s) reach(es) the Control Point at the far side of the map, resulting in the BLU team winning. If all of the Spycrabs are dead, friendly fire will activate, and a short round of team-killing will commence for the Hunters.
The player playing as a spycrab cannot switch his weapon from a disguise kit unless the spycrabs are victorious. When the spycrab is still alive during the round, he must keep his disguise kit above his head and crouch-walk to the control point. Some server mods make it impossible to move the disguise kit below your head.
On some servers, if a Hunter has killed a fair amount of Spycrabs, he is then awarded a fake achievement called "Crazed Huntsman," which will protect him from friendly fire during the end of the round.

Info about plugin
- Current version: 0.9b
- Plugin is avaliable to download from 16 Mar 2009 - on Allied Modders Forum.
Mechanics
The Spies are forced into the Spycrab position. If they do not crouch, they are frozen in their spawn area until they do so. A message stating: "Crouch and Look Up" will appear on screen to help new players learn what to do. If they look down, the camera auto-locks them back to looking at the sky, but the angle is sufficiently low enough to see the Hunters. Fallen Spycrabs will respawn as Hunters.
Weapons Allowed
- Snipers
- Primary: Huntsman
- Secondary: Jarate (Not usable unless the sniper has not equipped the huntsman)
- Melee: Kukri, Tribalman's Shiv, or Bushwacka
- Spies
- Primary: Revolver (Not usable unless the BLU team wins)
- Melee: Knife
- Special: Disguise Kit
Note: If a Sniper does not own a Huntsman or Jarate, he will be given a modified Pistol that fires Arrows. This Pistol uses the Engineer's viewmodel, but the player appears to hold nothing in third-person mode. If the Sniper owns a jar of Jarate but not a Huntsman, he will only be able to use Jarate.
Bugs
- If a Spy attempts to play with Your Eternal Reward equipped, his model will be forced into a Civilian-like reference pose. This is due to the fact that the server removes access to other weapons other than the Knife, and the Disguise Kit is not present.
Trivia
- The "achievement," Crazed Huntsman, is a reference to Meet the Sniper, where the Sniper attempts to explain to his father that he is an assassin, and not a crazed gunman.
- A slightly altered version of this game mode also exists, where one Spycrab is escorted by his team (consisting of Spies equipped with a primary weapon), to a Control Point, similar to The Hunted Source Mod.
