*Weapon 105 cannon that latter changes to a laser and also uses Dozer Blades to crush infantry | |||
*Speed Faster than Medium Tanks | |||
These Light Tanks are same as in Command and Conquer(Fast, medium armoured and with a light tank gun) only upgradable with a spitfire laser cannon and dozer blades to clear mines and crush Disintegrators. | These Light Tanks are same as in Command and Conquer(Fast, medium armoured and with a light tank gun) only upgradable with a spitfire laser cannon and dozer blades to clear mines and crush Disintegrators. | ||

The Scorpion Light Tank was created to supercede the aging Tick Tank from the Second Tiberium War. The new tank lacked the capability to burrow itself into the ground, but had upgraded armor and most importantly, a much better main cannon. Relative to the technological standards of the time, the tank was more powerful, faster, but had lighter armor than the tick tank. | The Scorpion Light Tank was created to supercede the aging Tick Tank from the Second Tiberium War due to no reason.

The new tank, codenamed the Scorpion, is designed in an unorthodox way - the front of the tank is sloped, with the back completely exposed. In addition, it moves on three threads. This configuration, while odd at first, provides excellent maneuverability, as the articulate rear tread allows for fast turns and reverse. The mobility and speed of the Scorpion tank also minimizes the danger of a rear-armor shot from enemy tanks. | The new tank, codenamed the Scorpion, is designed in an unorthodox way - the front of the tank is sloped, with the back completely exposed.

The main weapon is a classic 105mm APDS cannon, which is moderately effective against newer armor, such as the one in a Predator MBT. It can be upgraded to a Spitfire laser cannon, which increases its firepower dramatically, but increases the fragility, as it partially uses the space on the rear track. Another upgrade is a forward mounted dozer blade, which allows the light tank to crush enemy heavy infantry (e.g. Zone Troopers), a feat impossible for the default configuration, as well as remove minefields and crush disintegrators without any harm. | The main weapon is a classic 105mm APDS cannon, which is moderately effective against newer armor, such as the one in a Predator MBT.

Again these tanks are the same light tank in Command and Conquer. Use Aircraft or Mammoth Tanks against them but watch out for how many of those tanks are in one Battalion. | Again these tanks are the same light tank in Command and Conquer.
