40K Eldar Striking Scorpion Weapons and Armor
The Aeldari (Eldar) Aspect Warriors known as the Striking Scorpions epitomize the deadly attributes of their namesake, and they are the most skilled of all the close-assault Warrior Aspects on the Aeldari Path of the Warrior.
They are merciless killers without exception, reveling in the hunt and the kill, using stealth and shadow to cloak themselves from sight until the moment of attack. The Striking Scorpions represent the wrath of the War God Kaela Mensha Khaine, which can fall without warning and with extraordinary savagery upon his foes.
The Striking Scorpions are one of the Aeldari Warrior Aspects dedicated to close combat, particularly close combat during infiltration missions in which they must first close with the enemy undetected before unleashing their wrath. Many Striking Scorpions are physically more powerful than standard Aeldari, and can match their Drukhari (Dark Eldar) counterparts for sheer physical power.
Compared to their closest cousins, the Howling Banshees, Striking Scorpions are not as swift but instead more adept at moving through dense terrain, using every available nook and crevice to lie in wait for the enemy before unleashing their attack. Only those Aeldari of strong physique can become Striking Scorpions in order to wear their armor and wield their weapons.
The Striking Scorpions are also known for their use of a Shuriken Pistol in one hand and a Scorpion Chainsword in the other. Striking Scorpions also make use of Scorpion Armour, a suit of Aspect Armour that offers somewhat superior protection compared to the Aspect Armour suits used by most of the other Eldar Warrior Aspects.
The armor was ported by klaatu27 and he did a really great job on it, I ported the weapons and because the 2 of us did different things on this set, there are 2 different mods that you can download. The armor is set up to be usable by both males and females, but there is no female breasts or physics for them on the armor sets. The armor is currently not upgrade-able, but may be updated at some point.
The Chainsword does not have any special animations or upgrades, and I will not be making any for it. The Shuriken Pistol does not have any special animations and I will not be making any for it. The gun does have the option to have damage modifiers added to it at the weapons workbench. You have to have level 4 in Gun Nut to modify the gun and it costs caps to modify the damage on it. These are just a basic no frills weapons, just the way I like them.
As stated above in red the weapons cannot be improved or changed at the
Weapon Workbench, other than having a legendary effect added to the Chainsword and the damage upgrades for the pistol.
The weapons and the armor can be made at the Chem Bench and have their own listings, so they should be easy to find.
You will need to download and enable each of the mods in order to have the weapons and the armor in your game. If you don't download them both, you will not have them both.
The mods are both flagged as an ESLs, so they do not take up any mod slots.
The mods are what they are, and unless there is a game breaking issue, will not be revised at this time.
Thanks again to klaatu27 for porting the armor so that it could be released for 40K and Eldar fans to use in their games.
You rock man. :)
