The expeditions are really an all in or nothing situation. If you've maxed it and than researched all the library perks than it seems worth it. Mainly because the troops cards there are the only ones I use really because marco is being a jazzwhole. But this update is blow as I liked getting the secondary blessings and the one day peace treaty. I haven't tried my first expedition yet now that the game is updated but I feel like the bonus portion would also include museum pieces now so the chances to get an additional troop card will be slim to none. Not that it happened all the time but it was a sight for sore eyes to send an expedition to get Roc army and as a bonus, get another roc army or nato army. Nicer with nato army simply because I never do the 3 person expeditions as I only ever have 1-2 people free. It's not like the secondary items were OP but they were a nice tiny bonus and they took that away from us. It hasn't been that long that I've been using the level 9 shipyard as well and now it's been nerfed in a way.
