I've owned and used the Eldar Scorpion Super Heavy tank for almost 1.5 years. With the release of the Lynx I just had to get it!
(with a simple long pin, I can swap 1 Pulsar laser from the scorpion to the Lynx, since I bought the Sonic Lance version).
Scorpion = 500pts, 12/12/11, 3 Structure, twin linked Pulsar
Lynx = 320pts, 12/12/10, 2 Structure, Pulsar (not twin linked) or Sonic Lance, save vs weapon destroyed on 3+, can move like a Flyer. Model is quite a bit smaller and thus not as large a target.
IMHO, I don't think the Scorpion is worth it anymore. The Lynx's ability to move like a Flyer far outweighs the 2 Structure Pts and lack of twin linked.
Your thoughts? do any of you prefer the Scorpion?
