With the newly added nerf to the Turret Speed on Gunboat Turrets, the Scorpion rear archs make it one of the worst if not the worst GBs for combat. Firing only TWO turrets at a time to it's entire back hemisphere and 4 only if the target is perfectly centered to it's rear.
Given it's slow agility nigh of that of an Imperator (which can fire 6 to it's rear by the way) but sporting the low hull and core of a medium Gunboat, this ship could do with either rear firing arch improvements or an agility improvement.
