User blog:Le Rottweiler/Who’s Armagon’s scourge?

I’ve been wondering: What’s the scourge in Scourge of Armagon? I have two hypotheses.

The most straightforward is this: Usually, we define scourge as a source of persistent (and destructive) trouble. Given that Armagon is the antagonist, the answer seems obvious: His scourge is the hero, Ranger (Q1). However…

If we look in the pack’s files, the term ‘scourge’ is used to mean the Centroid. Traditionally, a scourge is a whip for the infliction of pain, punishment, or both. The name may derive from a figurative reference to the Centroid’s tail. So if we can trust the game files, then it may be the case that Armagon’s scourge is actually the Centroid: His means of inflicting (punitive) pain. They were probably products of the (American) military, but were later converted into enemies to serve general Armagon.

So the scourge of Armagon may be either Ranger (his nemesis) or the Centroid (his minion). What do you think? Do you have an alternative hypothesis?
