Semper Tyrannis
- Scorponok's ship is a starship from the Marvel Comics portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Scorponok's ship is a major Decepticon battle cruiser. She is so important in fact that she doesn't even have a name. She's sleek, except for the parts that aren't. She is fast, though even with a head start she is caught by a flying island. She is powerful, though we never actually see her fire a single weapon. Okay, so maybe she isn't. She can however randomly change her color scheme from purple to Gold. Truth be told, we know practically nothing about her. However, we know Scorponok chose her as his personal vessel when hunting down Autobots so she must have some advantages. Still, for a ship with no name and who never gets to show her stuff, she was important as she acted as the chariot which almost carried Starscream to godhood.

Marvel Comics Continuity
When Decepticon leader Scorponok learned that his arch-nemesis Fortress Maximus had left Cybertron for Nebulos, he ordered his troops to pursue; the ship carried them to Nebulos, where it was left in orbit while the Decepticons invaded the planet's surface. Broken Glass!
After a series of adventures on Nebulos, Scorponok and his crew left Nebulos aboard the ship, pursuing Fortress Maximus to a new world. Brothers in Armor!! The starship ferried the Decepticon crew to Earth, where it was again left in orbit. Trial by Fire! The ship served as Scorponok's headquarters for a time, until his troops could establish a base on Earth. Monstercon from Mars!
Eventually, Scorponok landed the vessel on Earth's surface in the Arctic, to rendezvous with Ratbat's crew. Upon landing, it served as a rattle toy for Piranacon for a bit. Starscream smoothed the whole thing over... just before he started a massive battle between the two crews, just so he could get his hands on the space-ready craft and go after the Underbase. Club Con! Guess he thought it was faster or something, but he was wrong. Ratbat's Club Con caught up with him, despite the head start. Scorponok's starcruiser did prove helpful though, if only as a mace which he pummeled the pursuing vessel with. Ouch. Dark Star
