OVERVIEW

    The TME-129 Crocodile is designed to spearhead underwater-based amphibious assaults.  While TME-123 Tortoises slowly plow up and deposit their 'Mech cargoes, Crocodiles can surge ahead and take up the defenders.  However, being designed to survive all stages of assault makes it less effective at each stage.  Its firepower is split between a 10-class shotgun autocannon for surface and beach fighting and a short-range torpedo six-rack for underwater defense, all mounted onto its dome-like turret.
