Very little is known about this ship as none have been captured and very few survive seeing it. What is known is that the [[Nomads]] have created this ship in conjunction with their infested human counterparts; Das Wilde. No human pilot has been detected piloting one of these ships.

The Scorpion is an automated semi-organic drone developed by the Nomads and their thralls. A single Scorpion is a match for any human gunboat, but in groups they become much more deadly.

<!--- Scorpions represent a unique class of ships, designed from the ground up to interface with both [[Nomad]] and human technology.  They do not use pilots like normal ships, but are instead either remotely operated or self-controlled by advanced programs installed onto the ship's hybrid systems. Because of this, they can be fielded in great numbers with no concern for "casualties" in the traditional sense, and have been used to great effect in the ongoing fighting in the Omega systems.  With the agility of Nomad vessels and as much forward firepower as any known gunboat, Scorpion drones are not to be underestimated. --->

The Scorpion is an automated semi-organic drone developed by the Nomads and their thralls. A single Scorpion is a match for any human gunboat, but in groups they become much more deadly. Being specifically designed from the ground up to interface with both human and Nomad technology, the Scorpion can make use of any weapon small enough to fit on it, as well as being easy to maintain. Scorpions also contain trace amounts of human tissue deep within them, though scientists have been unable to discern the purpose of this tissue from what remains after a Scorpion has been destroyed.
