An idea for a new victory condition.

[Baal]

I'd like to see a "secret mission" victory condition like in risk. You are given a specific mission to complete at the very beginning of the game.

Example: Prevent PLANET with ancient technology from being colonized. While another player has mission colonize PLANET to ge thte ancient tech.

Or: Kill PLAYER because he is your rival.

Or: Occupy a certain region of the galaxy.

Or: Collect samples of all surviving races in the game.
