The '''Second Scorpion Hussars''' were the premiere recon and terrain-mapping unit in the [[Clan Goliath Scorpion Touman|Scorpion ''touman'']]. They were able to quickly create maps of enemy positions. They used this ability to their advantage when they took [[Tokasha]]; by occupying the empty [[Clan Ghost Bear]] enclave there, they fooled the [[Clan Diamond Shark|Diamond Sharks]] into wasting time and resources taking an empty outpost.<ref name=FM:WCp116/> They then took up a garrison position on planet<ref>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 164</ref> and were still there in [[3067]].<ref name=FM:Up78>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 78: "Warden Clans Deployment Table"</ref>

As part of Tau Galaxy, they saw limited fighting in the Wars of Reaving remaining a defensive formation. It is likely that the Cluster was still on Tokasha when [[Clan Stone Lion]] moved against the Scorpion holdings in [[3079]], before being recalled to [[Roche]] by the [[Khan]]. From here, Tau Galaxy moved to [[Waypoint 531]], before attacking [[Granada]], the capital of the Umayyad Caliphate in January 3080. The world was captured within a week, but it saw the death of Galaxy Commander [[Evelyn Buhallin]].<ref name="WoRp157-8">''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 157–158: "Escorpión Imperio (Periphery Nation)"</ref>
