You would need heavier guns than your tanks and Brute Shots to take out a Scarab. Not even a continuous bombardment from Pelican Archers do a scratch on it.
I envision the idea for Campaign. Say, an city map on Earth while you take control of the gunner as it thunders through the streets, crawl over buildings and trampling smaller ones. Since the Scarab was such as success in its first field deployment(not really), the Covenant has revamped the Scarab design to be a more effective war machine. In addition to its 'eyeball' cannon, the topside deck also has a huge plasma siege cannon coupled with a small mortar launcher to bombard smaller ground targets as well as the existing rear anti-aircraft cannon. Only the deck main cannon(variable of destructible enviroments factored-it has an effect on the whole concept that it could either be awesome or useless) and its mortar can be controlled by you.
A thought...
