SPOILERS - - Of Unknown Origin, the 411 on the HM Mini-Campaign - - SPOILERS

IIRC, there's a dialogue and the end of the FP that says something about a bunch of "junk" that is collected that Yang is digging through. It is implied that the parts are in there, and they do not show up in the mech bay until you have all the parts.

Ahhhh I see! Yes, you’re absolutely right!
Thanks very much! :bow:

Do you remember in which Mini-campaign's FP do we get the first Bull Shark BSH-MAZ Salvage Part, and then in which other one do we get its left-over still missing parts?
So far I've completed the Tarragona & Independence FP parts of the mini-campaign, but I got none of those Salvage Parts yet...

You don't actually get any Bull Shark MechParts added to your MechBay, it's just fluff text of the FPs and the Event.

The COIL manufacturer tip was the best. Now we have a nod to everything.

Enjoying a lot the campaign so far. Only dislike was the 2nd FP having only a single mission. To me 2 missions is bare minimum if you want to call it a FP.

Just got the Bullshark. Thank to the screenshots i believe i still have at least one more FP until the end. Can anyone that already finished confirm?

Just finished the Flashpoint and started reading through these spoilers to see if I missed anything. Agreed on the tip about the COIL manufacturer. If I were to link everything together, would it be something like ----

Spoiler: HM mini campaign and lore linkages

Clearly the Bull Shark has origins as original manufacture of Clan Wolverine (e.g., the Stag). Given the potential linkage between Comstar and Trish Ebon's Wolverine remnants resulting in "The Blood" (conservative/WoB element of Comstar) I imagine The Blood/Wolverines were partly settled in the Terran system and partly in Herakleion aka Jardine and maybe others of the Five. They could've pushed forward weapons research (COIL) and mounted those on mechs they brought with them, like the Bull Shark. Then this one Jumpship was lost to a misjump, hence the combination of Wolverines/Herakleion.

Sorry for necroing this thread, but I just have to mention how much I enjoyed this mini-campaign. I burned myself out last year with Battletech and just now came around again to play a couple hours of what is still my favourite game ever.

Spoiler

Final battle was a blast. I did it with Bull Shark, Archer-S, Black Knight and a Phoenix Hawk. I was able to mostly just watch them punch each other to death and came out with but a 1-day repair on the phoenix hawk and empty ammo bins.

Good to see you enjoyed it. So much fun and such fabulously notorious Bosses for what became the last and IMO best HBS Campaign/Mini-Campaign.

The Hyades Rim mod is full of new flashpoints if you'd like to see something new.

They're really well done, so give it a shot.

You can even use it with the HBS modloader if you don't want to do ModTek.

Can I combine it with the Arano campaign somehow?

If you also use something like this mod, yes.
It is one made by me, it information provided in the Paradox forum by several players, that activates FP and the full map access by the time you get the Argus.
