When I first heard the DICE were looking to implement a classic BFII Conquest-style Instant Action mode, I was ecstatic. But overall it just simply too barebones to replace what the OG Battlefronts offered. Even adding Starfighter versions of Team Battle and Onslaught. And DICE did continually improve and add content to it. Which was the goal I suppose, so I guess it did serve its purpose. It essentially was a little sandbox shooting gallery to learn the basics and test the heroes and reinforcements on. No enemy reinforcements, no enemy heroes, no vehicles or starfighters to speak of.

Instead of utilizing unique maps, characters, and assets exclusive to that campaign mode, "Rise of the Empire" was simply a series of scenarios on the present multiplayer maps with modified objectives, with the occasional unique character/object models (e.g.
But it was not a campaign of what we traditionally would think of. For those of you who remember, the original Pandemic Star Wars: Battlefront II from 2005 had it's own campaign called "The Rise of the Empire".
