Counter-Red Spiders

An entry in Fortnightly Topic Challenge #35: Restricted Title 1. Title based on this xkcd.

This puzzle contains hints for 220 black squares (but that's not the point) but is a standalone puzzle.

The counter-red-spider offensive begins...

We need your help to mount the counter-offensive against the red spiders. The following blueprints just came from mission control.

(I just hope those spiders didn't muck with the plans. If they did, things could get a bit... complicated).

Hint:

Hint:

If you're feeling disoriented ask for help from your team.

Hint:

Every man has a job.


Hint: >! This is not like my previous puzzle.
