The only thing I'd add is that the Scorpions place an absurdly high value on marksmanship and avoid missiles. Likewise, the nomadic lifestyle causes them to use fewer ballistics and focus on energy. For those reasons, the force lists of the Scorpions almost always include the specific variants and things like the Warhawk and Nova Primes are prominent.
While I appreciate the effort that went into this, You miss a couple of key issues (assuming we are discussing the clan in a comparatively modern 3050 context). 1. The clan is actually quite solid ecconomically due to the fact that they began establishing bases not just on the surface but also underwater in order to get better access to mineral deposits. A side effect of this practice was the development of the precursor of elemental battle armor. 2. While the seeker tradition is important in the clan, it's impact on the relative strength of the touman was curtailled by SaKhan Scott after she defeated Loremaster Kirov in a duel and forced the Seekers to be a part of the standard army first and foremost..
Everything in this lorewarrior is from the book 'the clans warriors of kerensky' and it's verbatim. These aren't meant to be massive treatise' on each clan or else they would run for much longer and frankly be quite boring. What's in the book is in the video and everything else it up for further reading by fans or people interested.
Critical Rocket Might I suggest reading www.scribd.com/doc/23569665/1711-Field-Manual-Warden-Clans ? Much of the information I cited was pulled from Sarna.net and it used this as it's primary source of information on this particular clan. Just trying to be helpful; these guys and the ghost bears are easily my favorite clans :)
I like the scorpions too, but I didn't want to just read off Sarna material since it's a mix of both original and post FASA text which is usually more concise but isn't the original text. Warriors of kerensky also allowed me to make these relatively small videos as a kind of introduction for those people who have never heard of them before. I've read the material before but the link's good for anyone else looking to learn more.
It's donated by a fan from his now defunct band fuze. His youtube name is davekell69 I think. Very awesome of him to allow me to use it for the channel.
the scorpion empire as its now knows as (they conquered the hanseatic league, time for a name change!) is in the deep periphery, so the ilclan would have to go out of its way to even communicate with them. the only people in convenient contact with the empire are the sea foxes and thats cuz theyre the sea foxes

Well, the name's the coolest thing about the clan. Goliaths and Scorpions are best mechs
Both 'mechs we need in MWO :)

Wonder where the intro tune comes from.
It's donated by a fan from his now defunct band fuze. His youtube name is davekell69 I think. Very awesome of him to allow me to use it for the channel.
I wonder how the IlClan deals with the Escorpion Imperio?
the scorpion empire as its now knows as (they conquered the hanseatic league, time for a name change!) is in the deep periphery, so the ilclan would have to go out of its way to even communicate with them. the only people in convenient contact with the empire are the sea foxes and thats cuz theyre the sea foxes
I love your outro tune :)
Thanks :) It's a donated track from youtube user Davekell36 from his old band.
