Nope, it really means they can't breed... Same goes for the GCS.

You should be able to add the tag, but I don't know if you will have to create a new world to force it being taken into account
You shouldn't have to, I don't think.

Also, if you'd rather tame the scorpion and still use it in the arena anyways, I recommend making it trainable as well.

Here's what I would use:

Code: [Select]
[CREATURE:SCORPION_DESERT_GIANT]
[NAME:giant desert scorpion:giant desert scorpions:giant desert scorpion]
[TILE:'S'][COLOR:6:0:0]
[MODVALUE:10]
[LARGE_ROAMING]
[POPULATION_NUMBER:2:3]
[CLUSTER_NUMBER:1:2]
[DIFFICULTY:3]
[EXTRACT:giant desert scorpion venom:7:0:1]
[EXTRACT_VALUE:100]
[EXTRACT_PARALYZE]
[EXTRACT_ANTIDOTE:giant desert scorpion antivenin:7:0:0:100]
[NATURAL][PET_EXOTIC][TRAINABLE]
[PARALYZEIMMUNE]
[GENPOWER:4]
[BLOODTYPE:W][CHITIN]
[PETVALUE:2500]
[GRASSTRAMPLE:10]
[LARGE_PREDATOR][SAVAGE]
[CARNIVORE]
[NOPAIN][EXTRAVISION][NOSTUN][NOEMOTION][NOSKULL][NOBONES]
[BUILDINGDESTROYER:1]
[NOFEAR]
[PREFSTRING:enormous tails]
[BODY:SPIDER:2EYES:HEART:GUTS:BRAIN:TAIL:TAIL_STINGER:UPPERBODY_PINCERS]
[SIZE:10]
[MAXAGE:20:30]
[ATTACK:MAIN:BYTOKEN:TAIL_STINGER:sting:stings:1:6:PIERCE][SPECIALATTACK_INJECT_EXTRACT:50:100]
[ATTACK:MAIN:BYTYPE:GRASP:snatch:snatches:1:6:GORE][ATTACKFLAG_CANLATCH][ATTACKFLAG_WITH]
[CHILD:3][CHILDNAME:giant desert scorpling:giant desert scorplings]
[FAT:1]
[ALL_ACTIVE]
[BIOME:DESERT_BADLAND]
[BIOME:DESERT_ROCK]
[BIOME:DESERT_SAND]
[STANDARD_FLESH]
[HOMEOTHERM:10067]

This means that they will appear more frequently and in larger numbers.  They will also be able to reproduce and be trained for war-this defeats the purpose of leaving some untamed because war animals are more aggressive as well as doing double damage.  You could add some dmblock or size if you wanted them to be even more powerful.
None of these changes require a new world.

Thanks a bunch for that clarification! As  a matter of fact I was modding the raws when I saw this post. Pretty muchg what I've done, although I didn't know war animal > wild animal. Good to know.

EDIT: checked out the wiki page on tokens, found out my answer ;p
