The "Lockdown" Scorpion is a variant of the M808S Scorpion.

Design details[edit]

Main article: M808S Scorpion

The M808S Scorpion originated during the long years of the UNSC Spirit of Fire's drift through space. During this time, Serina took to upgrading the base Scorpion model with numerous improvements. Isabel would find little to improve in these designs, but she sees possibilities for specialized variants that leverage the chassis for other roles.^[1] It is likely the Lockdown Scorpion is one of these specialized variants.

The Lockdown Scorpion is fitted with a battering ram affixed to the front of the vehicle and a black paint scheme. The vehicle is also equipped with energy shielding.^[2]

Gameplay[edit]

The Lockdown Scorpion is a Blitz card available for use by players playing as Isabel in Halo Wars 2, particularly in the Blitz and Blitz Firefight modes. The Lockdown Scorpion has the following attributes;

Rarity: Rare
Cost to deploy: 150
Shield: This unit has energy shield protection that absorbs damage and regenerates when out of combat.
Shock: This unit intimidates nearby enemy troops, significantly reducing their armor.

The Lockdown Scorpion is classed as a Main Battle Tank, and performs well against infantry, vehicles and aircraft.
