The Scorpion is the archetypal Engine of Vaul, effortlessly
combining Eldar anti-grav technology and gracility with
fearsomely heavy frepower. The Scorpion is also the most
common Engine, with most schools of design having developed
their own Scorpion over time. The Scorpion is so-called since it
mimics the ranging sting attack of the Scorpion of Eldar myth,
lashing out at its enemies with a pair of pulsar lasers before
most enemy can even get within range of the tank itself. Despite
its enormous size, the Scorpion is not especially cumbersome
and, alone amongst the Engine of the Vaul, possesses the
ease of control to manoeuvre within the craftworld itself.
In the Tyranid invasion of Iyanden craftworld phalanxes of
Scorpion super-heavy grav-tanks took up position in some of
the craftworlds widest corridors and halls places where the
Eldars lack of numbers would otherwise have left them badly
outnumbered and quickly overwhelmed by the Tyranids.
