Pretty similar to the old rules; the only changes I can immediately spot are the 3 DC, 6 Attacks and maybe the armour profile?
Contrary to the rumours the scorpion cannon remains the same as the standard Brass Scorpion.
Also, note this interesting passage from the fluff text:
Quote:
Since they first began to be encountered in substantial numbers during major Chaos assaults from the Eye of Terror, there seems now to have been several variants of the Brass Scorpion. Some machines display close similarities in construction to the defiler, while others have more outlandish and distinct shapes and sizes. Brass Scorpions have been encountered varying from the size of a Leman Russ battle tank up to colossal monstrosities the size of small Titans. Variations in armament have also been noted.
This gives credance to the idea of having 3 or so different stat lines for brass scorpions, and also reintegrates the old epic model as viable in the current fluff. Yay!
