Basically a way to add a mode that extends the amount of turns before the game ends.

Hi, go into \Field of Glory Empires\Scenarios\d310BCGrandCampaign, open SCENARIO.BSF and edit the line:
gTurnInfos.durationTurns = 500; // how many **turns**

Thanks! Is there a way to make that into a new mode? Like copying the grand campaign file, call it something new and change the turn duration? Or is it only possible to edit the currently existing modes

No Problem man. Make a copy of the folder d310BCGrandCampaign, then adjust the turns in the copied folder as described. To choose the copied scenario in game you need to change the name of the scenario. You do this by editing the TEXT1.TXT if the game language is english, otherwise it's the file named after your language like TEXT1_GER.TXT for german. In that file change the line IDS_CAMPAIGN_NAME,"Grand Campaign 310 BCE" to whatever you want. There you go

You know you can continue past the end date, right?
