Title: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: Lord Canterbury on June 25, 2015, 04:33:17 AM Just for fun - I tried combining the 2 Sith-iest UltraSabers in this Galaxy & beyond.
Here is the result: (http://i1300.photobucket.com/albums/ag93/Lord_Canterbury/image.jpg1_zps94cfrqre.jpg) It looks kinda cool, but wow; it's really long for a single blade saber. This is definitely a 2-handed saber! Title: Re: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: JediXIX on June 25, 2015, 04:46:50 AM ooohhh...... looks scary :o

Title: Re: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: Connah on June 25, 2015, 09:28:40 AM how the sodding heck do you dismantle a scorpion to change the emitter?
Title: Re: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: Lord Canterbury on June 25, 2015, 12:56:33 PM I'll have to measure it tonight after work and will let you know how long it actually is.
As far as removing the Scorpion emitter - you just need a long sae hex wrench to take out the 2 screws holding the claw on from the inside off. After that - it's an easy unscrew like any other MHS. Title: Re: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: Connah on June 25, 2015, 06:14:04 PM awesome, I am so doing this when I get home
not that I have anything to attach in its place......yet Title: Re: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: Roband on June 26, 2015, 03:10:30 AM Nice and sinister, would love to see it lit up.
Title: Re: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: Lord Canterbury on June 26, 2015, 03:25:25 AM What's the length of that turn out to be? From Claw to Pommel it's 19.5". I would estimate about 2.5" from the claws (forgot to actually measure that) so it's roughly 17" without claws. Nice and sinister, would love to see it lit up. I'll get a pic up in Blazing Red this weekend! Title: Re: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: Drahcir on June 26, 2015, 03:26:07 AM That's a pretty big hilt, wow.

Title: Re: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: Zren Tobas on June 26, 2015, 10:16:29 AM Very sick. If you still have it you should put that ring piece from the pommel under the emitter if possible then itd be more complete :P

Good idea. Only thing is the widths didn't line up quite as well as I thought they would.

:-X Title: Re: The Dark War Scorpion Post by: Roband on June 27, 2015, 07:30:11 PM That looks fantastic light up like that!
Does it handle more like a force pike (light yari) than a lightsaber, given its size ?

Does it handle more like a force pike (light yari) than a lightsaber, given its size ? I 'D say you definitely need 2 hands, but it's not quite as bad as I thought it would be. That said - I would never use it for full contact - it's pretty long & slim up top, in a way that the components aren't designed to be per se. |
