==Description==
[[Achernar BattleMechs]]' successful ''[[Dig King]]'' and ''[[Dig Lord]]'' MiningMechs inspired an unusual wave of copies, helped along by widespread access to the ''Dig King''&#39;s specs. The '''''Burrower''''' is among those copies. A cheap low-tech copy of the ''Dig Lord'', the ''Burrower'' came to be particularly prominent.<ref name=TRO:Ip48-49/>

As with many IndustrialMechs, combat-modified variants of the ''Burrower'' exist. ''Dig Lord'' copycats found widespread use in combat, the ''Burrower'' no exception.<ref name=TRO:Ip48-49/>

==Notes==
 
The ''Burrower'' was originally introduced by [[WizKids]] in the [[MechWarrior: Dark Age Collectable Miniatures Game]], where it was one of the designs only known by the generic name ''MiningMech''. The DTM-1M specifically represents the ''MiningMech MOD'' from MWDA. The publication of ''[[Technical Readout: Irregulars]]'' gave it ''BattleTech'' stats and its new name.
