Nothing makes a soldier fear their existence more than seeing a Scorpion MBT roll over the hill and lumber towards them.
Or maybe its opening what looks to be a new MRE only to find out it expired years ago. Delicious!
VERSION 1.2 FIXES:
- Fixed a weird issue when you fired the spent shell would get ejected infinitely.

Features of the Scorpion:
• High quality mesh, texture & script work.
• Bump mapping and normal mapping add even more authenticity to the vehicle.
• Completely custom scripting featured throughout- from the driving scripts, to the functioning raycast treads and to the turret itself.
• Fully mod! Nothing is more irritating than being limited to a handful of boring colors, so the inclusion of a tabbed, full color spectrum HUD allows for endless color selections. Full perm textures are in the help card for you to make custom skins for the tank.
• Color the tread pods, lower & upper body all the way up to several parts of the turret through the HUD.
_____________________
• Totally destroyable! Attached to the color hud are two bars: One for collision damage, meaning if you fall from a height and hit anything you will take physical damage. The other is a damage bar that responds to weapons fire. The driver has the option to toggle the combat system as well as there is an option to minimize the hud to hide the health bars.
• Smoke pours from the engine when the vehicle takes enough damage before it detonates when its health is depleted.
_____________________
• Owner & guest modes. Let your untrained friend drive a heavy battle tank! Ability to kick both the driver's and gunner's seat is accessed through the menu.
• The passenger turret is fully functional and operational. The turret rotates & tilts to follow its operator's controls.
• Both the main cannon and passenger turrets have max & min angles so they won't phase through the vehicle.
• Animated turret features. The main cannon's barrel recoils back while the spent shell is ejected out the rear with it's own animation.
• The tank has acceleration & deceleration sounds whilst the rear treads leave tracks behind themselves. The ability to disable the particles is in the menu.
• Built in auto flipper. Pressing X will have no effect in the event that you somehow manage to flip a 35 ton vehicle. Pressing the correct keys together will roll the tank upright in seconds.

Firing Main Cannon
Does it roll over everything? Does it turn enemies into a fine red paste? Can you pick up chicks in it? The answer to all of these is yes, probably two or three chicks a piece.
You can recolor it with the included HUD. You can press all six pedals. You can drive it down mainland roads and scare the random citizens of the grid. You cannot haul GTFO cargo in it (yet?!).
Nothing short of banlines can stop it. Nothing stands up to the oppressive sustained firepower. Nothing is between you and total battlefield supremacy.
I don't know what is better, the sound straight from my nostalgia of the Scorpion MBT main cannon hitting something, the huge ****off shell casings being ejected from it, or that it is so close the the original you'll swear you were still using the fluid Xbox controls to move it.
I don't expect you to like it, I expect you to love it and want more.
Best Tank in SL
this is literally one of the most faithful recreations i've seen of ANY video game object in SL, and it handles as close to source as SL can manage. 10/10
and yes, you CAN pick up chicks with this thing
Everything I could have hoped for.
The weapons do what they should. there aren't tons of customization unlike the other two vehicles on offer, there is no fluff. This scorpion does scorpions justice, I do not regret my purchase.
