Flashpoints are a special type of mission in Battletech.


Overview

Flashpoints are multi-part missions introduced with the Battletech: Flashpoint DLC. Paradox Games described them as such when the DLC was first announced:


"Flashpoints embroil players in the feuds and machinations of the various Great Houses of the Inner Sphere, and are designed to keep even the most hardened mercenary commanders on their toes. In addition to narrative twists and turns, some Flashpoint stories include consecutive deployments in which players can’t repair or heal between missions, while others feature infiltration contracts that restrict the tonnage of deployable BattleMechs."


Flashpoints are available for both Campaign Mode and Career Mode. In Campaign, all Campaign missions must be complete before they become available. In Career, they are available immediately, although it will take a few days of career time before they appear on the Star Map.

The release of the 2nd DLC, Battletech: Urban Warfare, added new flashpoints to the game.

The 3rd DLC, Battletech: Heavy Metal, added a flashpoint campaign.
