Victory conditions: galaxy campaigns

ES2 already is really fun to play again and again, but one thing is still missing in my opinion and that is a real campaign. We already have got the academy quest one might argue, still I would love to see options for e.g. random "King of the hill" maps (an empty middle node has to be under your control for several turns to win), or maybe a game-mode where you get a difficult questline that ends the game before the max turns are reached, but no one sees the points of the other empires. Or the real thing a campaign mode in which you can actually win by completing a competitive questline.

I guess introducing those game modes or campaigns is not a minor challenge because of the AI and stuff, but in my opinion it would be worth it!

Please give me a feedback and discuss.
