In February [[2531]] the crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} utilized multiple M808B Scorpions during the end of the [[Harvest Campaign]]. Shortly after a UNSC force led by [[John Forge|Sergeant Forge]] retook the besieged [[Alpha Base (Harvest)|Alpha Base]] from the [[Covenant]], M808B Scorpions were deployed alongside other forces in an assault against the Covenant-held [[Relic (location)|relic]]. The UNSC force was successful in stopping the Covenant, wiping out a Covenant [[Covenant citadel|base]] before stopping them from destroying the Relic with demolition charges.

After the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} arrived at the planet of [[Arcadia]], which was [[Battle for Arcadia|under attack]] by the Covenant [[Fleet of Glorious Interdiction]], M808B Scorpions were among the forces deployed into [[Pirth City]] to assist the [[Arcadian Patrol]] in evacuating [[civilian]]s aboard several [[Banta-class transport|cargo ships]]. After saving hundreds of civilians from the Covenant onslaught, the UNSC forces left the city through its traffic tunnels. At least one M808B made it to the outskirts of the city, where it was forced to retreat along with other UNSC survivors to a nearby impact crater, where they would proceed to establish a [[firebase]] and hold out against waves of attacking Covenant forces until [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[Team Omega]] could arrive. Over the course of the battle, [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]] [[Bravo 029 (Pelican)|Bravo 029]] continued to deliver UNSC forces until Team Omega arrived. Now reinforced with the Spartan-II team, the UNSC launched an assault on a heavily-defended Covenant [[Covenant citadel|base]], with M808B Scorpion tanks taking part in the assault. Later, M808Bs were used to help defend a number of [[M145D Rhino|Rhino]] tanks as they attacked a large Covenant [[Energy shielding|energy shield dome]] protecting [[Arcadia Forerunner ruins|a series of ancient]] [[Forerunner]] structures. After breaching the dome, M808Bs were among the UNSC ground forces that were deployed into the ruins to destroy a Covenant {{Pattern|R'awuw|Scarab}} protecting the main facility.<ref name="HW">'''[[Halo Wars]]'''</ref>

Upon their arrival at [[Trove]], the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} immediately began to deploy ground forces, with many of these being M808B Scorpion tanks. After Spartan [[Red Team]] became separated from the main UNSC force, Sergeant Forge assembled a team to reinforce them, as well as to destroy a [[Flood]] [[Proto-Gravemind]] that was blocking a transmission from Professor [[Ellen Anders]], who had been abducted by the Covenant on Arcadia. M808B Scorpions, along with various other ground and air assets from the ''Spirit of Fire'', were able to punch through heavy Flood resistance, destroying several [[Flood colony|colonies]] and the Proto-Gravemind. When the ''Spirit of Fire'' found itself being pulled into the shield world, [[James Cutter|Captain Cutter]] ordered all ground forces to return to the ship. Three [[platoon]]s were stranded on the surface and a rescue force was dispatched to retrieve them, including a number of M808B tanks. Sergeant Forge later lead an assault on four fortified Covenant bases in the interior of the shield world, in order to establish an effective resistance to allow them to springboard their assault on the [[Apex Site]]. The UNSC soon attacked the Apex Site, deploying M808B Scorpions alongside other ground forces to clear out Covenant and Flood resistance on the vast ramps leading up to the site itself. In the final engagement of the battle on the shield world, Scorpions, along with other UNSC ground forces were deployed with the objective of opening six interlocks that would open the portal to be used by the ''Spirit of Fire'' in order to escape from the planet before Sergeant Forge activated the ships [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine|FTL Drive]] in the installation's star. Within thirty minutes, they were successful in their mission, allowing the ''Spirit of Fire'' to narrowly escape the planet as it is destroyed.{{Ref/Reuse|HW}}
