Yes. Aside from bankruptcy, nothing will end the game for you in either Campaign or Career mode.
Very nice! I was a little nervous as I am nearing 200 weeks in campaign and feel like I barely touched the tip of the iceberg. I finally acquired over the last 4 or so days a nice set of medium sized mechs with 2 ShadowHawk 2-H's, 2 Centurions (AL + A), 2 Wolverines (6K + 6R) , 1 Hunchback 4P, 1 Griffin 1S, 1 Hatchetman 3F and 1 Vindicator 1R. I am 1 part away from an Orion 1v and a Thunderbolt 5s as far as heavy's are concerned, am hoping to have a heavy lance going soon.
I feel like I am rather behind no doubt but it wasn't until last weekend that I found out how getting contracts works.. I thought you were only able to take ones that paid for travel which really hampered my game as a lot of the ones that offered travel weren't very good and were far away eating up days. Once I found out that travelling to other systems spawned new contracts for that system, I've been able to get more money and more salvage. I almost felt like restarting my campaign because of this and was worried I ruined my game.. Thanks for letting me know, I feel much better about things now lol. Cheers!
