The Scorpion ABS (armoured battle station) is a mobile ground unit with a frontal plasma cannon and a super heavy rail gun turret. Created to carry a squad of marines in to any situation and form a heavily defended position behind enemy lines but with the capabilities of a tank and apc rolled in to one.
Inspired by Crimso Giger and his contagious building and by his theme moth Febrovery.
In transport mode with the main armament stowed
The Scorpion can carry a squad of 6 and requires a 2 man crew consisting of a driver/engineer and a gunner/strategic operations manager
Thick ablative armour shrouds a hardened plastanium core minimising both the impact from beam weapons and high velocity missiles. Unlike most ground units the Scorpion creates an adaptive energy shroud as a first line of shielding this further reduces the chance of being susceptible to supersonic projectiles and sneak attacks.
Armed with a forward firing plasma cannon and its quad lance rail cannon the Scorpion is as well armed as it is guarded.
With its main armament of a quad lance rail cannon, capable of launching rounds at hypersonic speeds with pinpoint accuracy, this Scorpion certainly has a sting in its tail.
