If you log out while on this quest ("The Ongoing Campaign") and log back in again you might be able to turn the quest in without selecting a second foothold. You will be unable to use the Zandalar Campaign table to select a second foothold and you'll be unable to continue this questline entirely. No word from Blizzard as of yet. Don't make the same mistake I made, select a second foothold before turning in the quest or you will get stuck.
