The Twenty-third Scorpion Cuirassiers form one of the strongest defensive units available to the Goliath Scorpions.

The Cuirassiers were wiped out in the fighting of the Trial of Refusal against the election of Garret Sainze to ilKhan; a three-day campaign against Clan Fire Mandrill fought on Shadow in 3072.[4]
