		The back of the Scorpion is better armoured than the front, meaning an operator may take more fire when it is directed at the rear.
		When boarding a Scorpion from the front, the boarder must melee repeatedly to kill the driver.
		I advise that people with close-range weapons to stick with the Scorpion to bring down any enemies that might board the tank, as boarders are still vulnerable when they are up on the tank.

	Urban Dictionary: scorpion
		Scorpions have existed for a long time (the oldest known fossils are 400 million years old, and some early scorpions were much bigger than those of today - the fossilized Brontoscorpio and Gigantoscorpio are estimated to have been a metre long each in life).
		Scorpions possess a pair of feather-like forms under their stomachs which they use to 'feel' the ground for vibrations which could tell of nearby predators or prey.
		When mating, the male scorpion grasps the female by the pincers, deposits a 'package' of sperm onto the ground and then pulls the female over it, so she can lower herself and absorb it through an opening in her body.

	Wraith vs Scorpion - Edgeworks Entertainment
		I myself prefer the scorpion probably because it has the machinegun and not just a heavy gun so you can do something against people running at you trying to board it.
		I'd have to say Scorpion it has very good Firepower and is easier to aim with while the Wraith has just a very weakend Mortar Bomb.
		the scorpion is much better in fire power so i like it better but the wraith is still ok. it would be much better if the secondary weapon actually worked for you and not just the enemy.

	Introduction to the Scorpion Hobby (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
		Scorpions have poor eye sight, but make up for it with sensory organs such as having setae on their bodies to pick up and evaluate scents, air movements and vibrations.
		Scorpions should not be kept by children under 18 years old (unless they are non-dangerous species being kept by a mature-minded and responsible child that is closely supervised by a responsible parent) and anyone that has mental problems that would make the safe-keeping of scorpions impossible.
		Generally, male scorpions are smaller and less stocky as females, males of the genera Centruroides and Hadogenes have longer, slimmer tails, many have more "granulation" on their claws and their pectines are wider with more "fingers/teeth" that also appear longer.

		The Sabre is a Scorpion light tank fitted with the turret of the Fox armored car, along with some upgrades in engine, transmission, smoke grenade launchers, and stowage.

		The reason for the 76mm was that it was used on the forerunner of the Scorpion, the Saracen (6 wheeled) armoured car.
		The counter to this was concealed recce to identify the main force and it's axis of advance (scimitar), and close-in recce, forming a screen with infantry recce patrols (scorpion).
		I've seen the scorpion described as an FSV in some sources, though this may be a misnomer based on it's armament rather than it's role.

		There are a couple of good ways to combat an enemy in a scorpion tank.
		There are gaps in the rollcage for the scorpion, and so you should be able to hit the driver, if not score a headshot.
		However, keep in mind that you have a fuel rod cannon, which you can cause a large amount of damage with, but also, you have to fly out of the way, for the banshee cannot strafe.

		For what it's worth, the Scorpion is a British 3-man [commander/loader, driver, gunner) light tank used for recce; it uses a 75mm cannon as it's main weapon (a virtually identicle vehicle, the Striker, has a 30mm cannon instead).
		The Scorpion was used mostly by armoured cavalry units in the Light recon role, The Scimitar was used mostly by (IIRC) RAF Regiment air field defence troops, in the ground point defence role.
		The NZ Army had a bunch (around 16 I think) of scorpions that they bought in the early eighties, they were all obsolete and decomissioned in the early nineties, not a very long life span when compared to the M113 which still has welded over bullet holes from H-cal mgun fire in Vietnam.

	Scorpion \| Rampancy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
		The Scorpion tank made difficult sections of the first game seem like shooting fish in a barrel, with only Wraith tanks and Banshee flyers posing any serious danger.
		In multiplayer, using it was more of a tradeoff, as the tank could be slowed by the effects of plasma weapons, and the driver was vulnerable to being sniped, as are Warthog drivers.
		In Halo 2, that trend continues; although the Scorpion cannot be simply boarded like the other vehicles, it is possible to jump on the tank and melee the driver.

		Sadly, my knowledge to this topic (tanks and land warfare) is poor, and the contact to the source of such short duration, that I could now badly need some additional opinions.
		For example, one of the things which were new to me about the Scorpion was that this tank should be able to move even without tracks - only on the four rollers, which should be powered.
		Furthermore, there should be some kind of a machine-gun, or 20mm cannon, that could be put into the barrel of the 60mm gun, thus changing the nature of the whole vechile, and making it capable to fight even helicopters and aircraft with automatic fire.
