I'm on server 33. I've been searching for one cross medal for more than a week, hitting a dozen or more low level valleys (lvl 1-3) per day. I foolishly used up my cross medals on heroes, so I'm currently stuck with only one city at the rank of civilian. I find rose medals, about one every second day or so. But no cross. It's irritating.
This is a for profit game. I expect they will continue to give people lots of incentive to buy medals so they can make money. That makes the world go round. It's their right to do that. And it's our right to give them grief over it.
