The scorpion is a small but very tough and deadly spelljamming vessal that looks much like its name sake. The each claw takes two crew members to operate, this along with the scro warriors that man the ballista and catapult requires a miminum of 15 crew members (the last two members being the captian and helmsman). In addition most scorpian ships will carry an additional 5 crew members (elite scro marines). The scorpion ship's 560 man-days of air supply is stretched so thin the most only stay out on patrol for only 28 days, but when going on a raid they will carry much more troops then this as they know that on the way home they will have fewer to breath the air. Most scorpion ships that cross the phlogistion will have only a living crew of 5 one of which one is a priest that commands skeleton assult troops. Once they cross into another sphere it is time to find a world to repentish supplies of food, air and orc warriors.
