I find it hard to believe that there won't be any new flashpoints. You have new content and having an outlander/hero you would think that some hard intel might be needed, i.e send to crashed ship retrieve data banks for the war effort, have cross faction team up to gain critical station, ship or capture leader or ship.
Operations you would need to launch an offensive at some point or get a beach head secured for a large scale landing ...something, but from what I have glossed out of the forums, you probably have some aces hidden somewhere...
