History
Clan Goliath Scorpion
Many members of the Fourth Scorpion Cuirassiers are equipped with prosthetics to treat injuries they received in combat. These warriors are often shunned by other Scorpions, but have served well and with honor. They served as part of the Tokasha garrison force in 3061[1] and were still in position in 3067.[2]
As part of Tau Galaxy they saw limited fighting in the Wars of Reaving remaining a defensive formation. It is likely that the Cluster was still on Tokasha when Clan Stone Lion moved against the Scorpion holdings in 3079, before being recalled to Roche by the Khan. From here Tau Galaxy moved to Waypoint 531, before attacking Granada, the capital of the Umayyad Caliphate in January 3080. The world was captured within a week, but it saw the death of Galaxy Commander Evelyn Buhallin.[3]
The Fourth Scorpion Cuirassiers took part in the Scorpion Empire's conquest of the Hanseatic League, seeing action in the brutal fighting on Kampen. With the fanatical Hanseatic Defense Force's Regional Defense Force 7 succeeding in pushing the Fourth and the other clusters of Tau Galaxy all the way back to their DropShips, warriors such as Star Captain Josey Myers successfully held back the attacking Hansa 'Mechs in a rear-guard action. Despite piloting damaged 'Mechs, elements of the Fourth like Josey Myers would later also participate in the combat drop into the city of Utrecht.[4]
