	Expeditions are a ~~push~~-~~your-luck~~ exploration system ~~where fleets progress through increasing depths~~, ~~encounter events~~, and ~~choose whether to extract or continue~~.		Expeditions are a depth-based exploration system built around risk management, decision-making, and progressive rewards.

	Unlike passive missions, expeditions ~~involve decision-making at each depth and risk escalation.~~		Unlike passive missions, expeditions require players to:

	~~Source system design: Expedition System Design Document~~		* Launch a fleet with at least 1 Probe
			* Resolve a random event at each depth
			* Choose whether to Extract or Continue
			* Manage increasing risk per depth
