Oh no - sorry. When I say "Scorpion Package" I am most definitely not referring to the fighters. (though I now remember that conversation now that you jogged my memory)
See, Aisha Sohaiz - my KDF Orion - follows the usual KDF method of fighting where you have mostly cannons or narrow arc weapons on the front and you fight facing the other ship instead of fighting "broadsides" as Fed Cruisers tend to do. But if you are forced to turn away or make a passing attack then what? You've got to turn back around like a fighter or escort to get your forward weapons trained again. But KDF cruisers, even though they are generally more nimble in a turn than Fed Cruisers, are still a touch slow compared to a BOP.
So I have a "Scorpions Tail" in the form of a set of a Breen Transphasic Cluster Torpedo. That thing is NASTY. I sometimes call it her "Going away" present. Because after she's gotten through blowing down most of the shields, makes a sharp turn at almost 90 degrees, and leaves behind what amounts to a set of MIRV Missiles tipped with nukes to finish the job, her foe is almost certainly going away.
