Overview
The Magpie was an unconventional design put forth by
Hellespont engineers in 3067. It was named not only after the
mischievous bird of the same name, but a MechWarrior that had been operating in Capellan space. It utilized stolen technology and experimental systems to create something truly unique for its time.

Capabilities
The Magpie worked most often as a scout ‘Mech but it could
handle itself in brief combat if the situation arose. Equipped with advanced stealth technologies, it worked best when remaining unseen.

Deployment
The Magpie was exclusively used by the CCAF, mostly for
scouting and reconnaissance duties. Following the Jihad, it was also sold in limited numbers to mercenary companies in the employ of the Capellan Confederation and its allies in the Magistracy of Canopus.

Variants
The original MGP-86 was a strange amalgamation of parts. The
advanced Stealth armor was powered by a Guardian ECM, and the two ER Medium Lasers were sourced directly from the Confederation. The Partial Wing however was technology stolen from Clan Jade Falcon and what gave the ‘Mech its increased jumping capability. The MML 3 launcher was also stolen, though this came from the Battle Magic Mercenary Company. It carried a single ton of long and short range ammunition, allowing the Magpie to hit various targets if the situation called for it.

A full thirty years after the original design, the one and only
variant was produced; the MGP-96. This version no longer relied on stolen technology, though it was still upgraded accordingly. With the Partial Wing removed, it lost some jump distance. It made up for this however with the addition of more weaponry, in the form of a third ER Medium Laser and two ER Small Lasers. It now relied on a Void Signature System powered by an Angel ECM Suite for its stealth capabilities.

Notable Pilots
Maggie “Magpie the Mad” Faraday, the same MechWarrior for
which the design was named, decided to acquire her own Magpie BattleMech in 3069. Leaving behind her old Nightsky in a daring raid, she made off with an original MGP-86 and used it for the rest of her career, which spanned decades and saw her fighting on both sides of the law over the years.
