Missions and Rewards

[JOZI]

I haven't seen a thread like this one and if there was one it hasn't been up in awhile so i thought i'd bring it up

I've always preferred having an objective to work for in strategy games and when it comes to missions, in my opinion, total war games are kind of lacking. I'm kind of tired of having some random mission to take a small village or town when i don't have the military force to do so. And now with built in garrisons and automatic diplomacy those are really the only missions left. Why don't they expand on the missions a little? please give some examples of missions and rewards so later someone like me or someone else can post them as a poll

I'd prefer to create our own missions and given the distance from nearest army/fleet, number of allies, and relative size of military of each side the proportional rewards.
