Topic: Reman Shuttlecraft - "Scorpion"

I am reading on the web the name of the new shuttle seen aboard the Scimitar is Scorpion. When I think of the two names in a single sentence, my thoughts turn to the film "Scorpion King". Is this name, Scorpion, confirmed for the Reman shuttlecraft?

This is a spoiler and should be marked as such.

Huh? A spoiler? How is this a spoiler?
I believe a spoiler to be a major plot point, such as those discussed here before. How is a ship's name a spoiler? It is a triviality which doesn't reveal plot turns. This is silly.

Especially since, IIRC, the shuttle is shown in a trailer, isn't it?

Yep, it's shown a lot in both trailer/teaser watchamajiggers. Although the name isn't mentioned, they show exactly what two characters do with one and we get views of the thing from nearly every angle.

It's from the script.

Well I figured people would be anal about it so I was just saying.

I consider the post itself just below the spoiler threshold - it's just some website speculation and tells nothing much about the movie.

However, I can't see how this thread can provide any interesting results unless we engage in actual spoiling. And to my experience, all discussion here is spoiler-heavy anyway. If you don't want to learn about "Nemesis", you don't read "Starships & Technology" articles that have "Reman" in them. You don't really read "S&T" at all. You read "General Trek" where the spoiler etiquette is much stricter.

Perhaps in this section we should only mark threads that DON'T contain spoilers! Shouldn't be all too many... [Wink]
