Way back when I was still in school I took all the mechs from the 3025 TRO and designed my own mods for tech upgrades. This was my Scorpion upgrade. It would require a major facility to do and lots of cred for a mech considered by many of the time to be a tank on feet.

Mass: 55 tons
Chassis: Brigaidier 800FXL
Power Plant: Vox330XL
Cruising Speed: 60.9 kph

Armament: Zeus Slingshot Gauss Rifle
Harpoon-6 SRM Pack
Magna Small Laser
Manufacturer: Mart'n'Marv's MechMart
Communication System: Garrett T10b
Targeting and Tracking System: Garrett D2j

Type Scorpion Tons
Tonnage: 55tons 55.0
Internal Structure: Endosteel 2.75
Engine: Vox330XL 12.25
Walking mp's: 6
Running mp's: 9
Jumping mp's: 0
Heatsinks: 10(20) 0.0
Gyro: 4.0
Cockpit: 3.0
Armor Factor: 160 10.0
Structure Armor
Head: 3 9
Center Torso: 18 24/11
Lt/Rt Torso: 13 20/6

Much more effective as a scout hunter which the design was intended.

Nasty, but expensive. I'd rather go cheap on the Scorpion variants, though. One I did was make it into a laser boat, just dump the weapons, install DHS and 6 MLs. Use the weight savings for increased armor.
