------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
As the sales of the Mordred dropped like in a free fall the OBM design team
came together to search for the cause of that disaster.
They asked the numerous militias and mercenaries why they rejected the mech and got an unsuspected answer! The customers, which mostly were operating on worlds near the periphery, complained about something the designers never thought of: As those worlds used any resources at hand they used BattleMechs even in peacetime as construction and transport vehicles! But the Mordred had no hands!

Instead of tinkering with the Mordred OBM decided to do a complete redesign
eventually leading to its successor: the first Parcival went of its production
line in 2952.

==Capabilities:==
As all specifications for the Mordred had to be considered for the Parcival
too, so the designers modified the base chassis only as little as possible.
First the mech got two fully functional arms and hands to be of use in
peace-time though it lost its ability to swivel its arms to the rear. Another
change addressed the weak anti-infantry capability: both small lasers were
dropped for a Parabellum MG '38 and its ammo. Therefor the targeting and
tracking system was equipped with a ballistic module.
To aid close combat two of the medium lasers were relocated to the side torsos while the third laser remained in the right arm for a great field of fire.
Most customers also wished a jump capable mech so a Smithson Lifters L4500 jump-system was added. The ground speed had to be considerable lowered for that modification as the smaller but also weaker Nimakachi 150M fusion engine had to be used.

==Deployment==
The new mech was a great success and replaced the disastrous Mordred in the minds of the customers. More than 400 Parcivals were produced and delivered to numerous militias and mercenaries all over the periphery edge of the DC and later some ended up in the Free Rasalhague Republic.
