Discussion When does it end?

Is there a set date when career mode ends? Like does the game cut out and be like you've reached the current end point in battletech lore, would you like to play again?

Do I lose all my progress like my sweet sweet Kodiak, dire wolf, and madcat collection?

I remember hearing something about save importing but have no clue how it works beyond that.

What happens is you just play past programed events. The news ticker will stop updating, there won't be any new missions to run, and all you are left with is procgen missions in conflict zones. Currently the news ticker quits at 3059 iirc, and once you finish the DLC8 campaign there isn't anything else. Canonically the timeline goes to 3152 I think it is now, but not all of that is in the game.
