I have just finished a Brass Scorpion for my iron Warriors army.

I like to name all my unique or standout models (all my characters and Land Raiders have names) but i am stumped as to what to name my Scorpion.

Any help and suggestions woudl be appreciated.

There are pics in my gallery if you need to see it for inspiration.

The World Engine

Isn't their already smething called that?

I'm lookgin for something.......mean i suppose.

There's no real theme to my naming in my army, here's what i have already:


Kel'Trath (IW Demaon Prince)

Warsmith Praxiss (Termie Lord)

Lord Korvellus - Master of the Armoury (MotF w/ conversion beamer)

Beltrak - Lord of the Dark Forge (MoTH w/ full servo harness and servitors)

Bitter Legacy (Land Raider)

Tide of Wrath (Land Raider Crusader i use for my 'zerkers in apoc games)

Wow, nice.

What are the other names? A bit of an army flavour would help with pitching ideas.

[EDIT] Ninja'd!

Exitum Omnia

Meaning, roughly, the destruction/end of all things

If you're into wry irony, call it Misericord.

It sounds evil but the phrase means an act of mercy in Latin/high Gothic.

And being killed before the Bezerkers got to you would be just that.

I actually really like Prides Remedy, but not for the scorpion. i will definately be using that for my next Land Raider though.

Iron Archea- meaning The ancient iron one

So how about "an act of merciful death"...Misericord Mortis? Its been almost 18 years since my single year of HS latin...

i like it.

Jimbo!

Can't call it Jimbo. Thats' the name of one of my Obliterators.


Jimbo, Jethro and Bob.

Wee Sammy?

I love the incongruous names thing.
