The player takes the role of "Commander Mason", the only son of Nikolai Mason, commanding officer of Nik's Cavaliers, a small mercenary outfit whose home base is on the Federated Suns world of De Berry circa 3015. Having come of age and taking a rebuilt 'Centurion' model BattleMech through its paces with his father, this training mission is interrupted by a surprise attack by a mysterious mercenary unit demanding information from Nikolai. Refusing to divulge the coordinates they seek, Nikolai orders his son to return to base and flee aboard the unit's Leopard-class DropShip, sacrificing his life to ensure their escape.
Reduced to just two BattleMechs, Mason and the survivors of the Cavaliers (Ryana Campbell, the operations officer of Nik's Cavaliers whom Mason considers family, and Fahad Arazad, the chief technician) reach out to Sebastian Spears, a high level agent of the company Interstellar Expeditions and a long-term friend of his father who provides assistance in escaping the system. Armed with a reused mercenary registration number to mask their origins, Commander Mason must rebuild his command to locate and defeat his enemies and avenge his father, as well as uncover the secret his father took to his grave.
As Mason completes missions over time, Nik's Cavaliers' reputation grows and they build up a lance of progressively stronger 'Mechs with veteran pilots. After leaving Federated Suns space for the Free World's League in search of leads, they finally learn the name of the mercenary outfit who attacked them: Black Inferno. Through a series of skirmishes against Black Inferno taking place from the Free World's League to Steiner-controlled space, including one which almost turned disastrous when Black Inferno ambushed them, Mason finds out that there are in fact two persons responsible for his father's death: Andreas Kane, leader of Black Inferno who piloted the 'King Crab' 'Mech that killed Nikolai, and Kenzo Yamata, who gave the order. Yamata is a representative of the immensely powerful company ComStar: controllers of virtually all interstellar communication, and Black Inferno's benefactor.
At Spear's recommendation, Nik's Cavaliers raids Black Inferno's repair and salvage base for stronger 'Mechs in preparation for an attack on Black Inferno's stronghold. Zavarov, an elite officer of Black Inferno who participated in the attack on De Berry, pilots Nikolai's 'Victor' 'Mech as a form of psychological warfare against Mason. Nonetheless, Mason kills her and retrieves his father's 'Mech. With enough firepower at last, Nik's Cavaliers launch an all-out attack on Black Inferno's final base. There, Mason faces off against Kane in his 'King Crab'. Though Mason prevails and even destroys the entire Black Inferno base, Yamata had escaped using Kane as a distraction.
With Spear's help, Ryana manages to decipher a series of coordinates from Nikolai's 'Victor', leading them into uncharted space on the periphery of Draconis Combine space. They discover that the planets there are strewn with ancient lost technology (known as LosTech) that ComStar wishes to exploit. With their target now switching from Black Inferno to ComStar, Mason captures and destroys ComStar outposts on several planets. Finally, Yamata himself arrives in his LosTech 'Annihilator' 'Mech to deal with Mason once and for all. After a hard-fought battle, Mason defeats Yamata. Immediately afterwards, Fahad reveals that Nikolai's 'Victor' is sending a signal to a secret 'Mech bay nearby. There, they uncover a LosTech 'Mech called a 'Nightstar'.
Through an audio log in the 'Nightstar', the crew of Nik's Cavaliers realize that the immensely powerful 'Mech belonged to Nikolai. He hid it decades ago to avoid rousing suspicion on his origins, as that 'Mech model had not been seen in the Inner Sphere for over two centuries. Moreover, 'Nikolai Mason' was an identity he adopted for a spy mission in the Inner Sphere. Reaching the final set of coordinates that Nikolai left behind, Nik's Cavaliers and Interstellar Expeditions arrive at a massive underground base with a treasure-trove of LosTech. It is conspicuously marked with a red star emblem that resembles a modified version of the crest of the Star League Defense Force (an ancient military force that protected the Inner Sphere and who disappeared hundreds of years ago). ComStar begins sending waves of BattleMechs to destroy them and secure the LosTech for themselves. With nowhere left to run, Nik's Cavaliers make their last stand. Thankfully, Ryana manages to retrieve all the data and they barely escape in time on their DropShip.
