==Capabilities:==
     The King Crab carries 19 tons of standard armor, an improvement over the
Star League machine which carried only 16 tons of expensive composite armor. 
Its secondary weapons systems are the long-range missile launchers in the left
torso and the large laser in the right, but its primary weapons are in its
huge, handless arms.  In the left arm is a Deathgiver autocannon, among the
most potent weapons ever created. The right arm, however, carries a pairing of
particle cannon, greatly increasing the 'mechs effective range, and allowing
it a primary system that does not rely on ammunition.
     Opponents of most slow but dangerous 'Mechs try to keep their distance
while attempting to pick away at the armor.  The King Crab's Holly long-range
missile system and Lord's Light particle cannons makes that possibility, at
best, dangerous.  When the missiles finally run out, the King Crab can still
blast away with its huge Exostar laser.  The only proven way to destroy the
'Mech is by outnumbering it, preferably with heavy or assault 'Mechs.  The
King Crab will still wreak plenty of havoc before it goes down.
     This version of the King Crab avoids several of the pitfalls common to
other variants. The primary weapons of most King Crabs are ammunition-based,
requiring that the vehicle either resupply in the field, or try to withdraw
once its' ammunition runs out, both risky maneuvers. Opposing pilots often
pounce when a King Crab's autocannon fall silent, and many King Crabs are
destroyed while trying to leave the field. With the 000-2's energy-based
loadout, however, pilot survivability and lethality are expected to increase
by almost 60%.
