 ===SELECTING AN EXPEDITION===
@@ Line 26: / Line 30: @@
   * Example 1:  a group of level 3 adventurers decide to neither take it safe nor go too risky and decide to look for a EDL 3 spot.  They notice that the East Grasslands is EDL 3, and contains a Ruin (R2), they tell the Judge that they will explore R2 for their expedition, and proceed to purchase supplies and equipment for the foray.
   * Example 2:  a group of level 4 adventurers are desperate for XP and money, they decide they are going to risk a EDL 6 expedition to hopefully win big.  They look at the map and find Ruin 13 in the West Hills zone and inform the Judge.  At the beginning of the session they hire as many underlings as practical and buy as much useful gear and healing potions as they can afford.
+**Goal Oriented Expedition**
+As the campaign progresses, the players will gain knowledge of the world, through encounters and through the acquisition of rumors.  Expeditions at this point might be planned based on such knowledge, rather than simple numbers.
+  * Example 1: Wilfred the Wise has been plagued by Rum-Ma the Ever-Living for months now.  He finds, from a tavern rumor, that Rum-Ma has his evil crypt in Ruin 13 in the West Hills.  He begs his pals to help him hunt down this fiend and they agree, choosing it as their next expedition.
+  * Example 2:  Father Muntz needs the essence of a vampire's spine to consecrate his Staff of Doom.  He learns that the Dead Hills are crawling with undead, so tricks his fellow party members into choosing to go there next week.
