You can play this game without spending a dime AND progress. It is just going to take you many many many more hours (months) than those who pay. But everyone CAN get to the same level, eventually.
As for the medal drops, I have noticed that drops change as your rank, pres and title grows. When I had 1 city and was a civilian and had like 50k pres, I was getting tons of drops from valleys and flats. Mich scripts, lost armor scripts, gems, materials, etc... all from low level valleys. But when I grew more those drops dried up. Now I need to hit lv8+ NPCs to get the good drops. If I hit low level valleys now I only get delicate gems and rose medals and maybe an occassional speaker.
The change in drop rates for materials (outside of gems and medals) were changed quitely by developers about 3 or 4 weeks ago. It has nothing to do with your rank, title or play style. After much uproar Dawnseeker asked about it and finally admitted the change. It was classed as a 'bug' that needed to be fixed. Dawnseeker has also admitted that devs constantly moniter and adjust drop rates to see the optimum balance for profit versus player progress (former is priority).
I have noticed that more drops of things like speakers, holy water, lost armour scripts and hero scripts are appearing over the last week. Still no materials for hero gear and no amulets from npc or valley attacks. And mick scripts are still only really found on rare hits on lv.10s.
