Use Scorpions to take out artillery/support units behind enemy lines, or economic assets.
While the're quite powerful and their riot-like weapons keep them safe from swarms of light units, the're ultimately expensive, sluggish units with a short range, so ideally you want them to somehow bypass or circle the enemy's main force. If what you want is to punch right through it, there are better Striders for that.
