In this post you can discuss all about the new spoilers, as we try to figure out what the new level will include!

Edit 20/10: As more and more images are found I'll add them to this post so we can have them gathered in one place
Edit 20/11: Fixed broken image links (and wow, it has really been over a month since we got anything new )
Edit 12/01: Updated fortifications assets have been added to the game
Edit 16/01: GE5 icon has been updated, added "decoration" building, updated fortification "relics".
Edit 22/01: Added GE5 background, fixed updated fortification assets
Edit 12/02: Added achievements, info screen, updated fortification assets, updated "limited" building inactive version.
Some very cool looking new expedition buildings have been added, for what appears to be a new GE Level 5!
In addition to what seems like the "main" building for this GE update, there are also another new building and some additional levels for existing buildings!
Update 16/01, a new version of the building that was added months ago has been added. It has the exact same look, except the name is different. The naming scheme suggests this building will actually be a "limited" building, though I'm not quite sure that will be the case or not. Update 12/02, the "decoration" version has been updated, looking like a ruin now, so I think it being a "limited" building has become more likely. In any event, here are the two versions:
As posted by Flo0Fil2L0 here, we also more or less have a confirmation that this is indeed related to GE Level 5! It will be interesting to see how GE5 will be like! Will it be something completely different, or just an even more difficult Level 4?
16/01 Updated version:
Thanks to @beelzebob666 here, we finally have the background of the GE5 level! We also have the level "name", which is "Lush"! (Previous levels are called "Easy", "Medium", "Hard", and "Vulcane", though don't think these appear in the game itself).
The most interesting thing (as of now) from the updated Hud asset is what appears to be 6(!?) new Relics, possible related to Temple of Relics, though I don't think so myself. The colors of the new "Relics" seem to correspond to the "Fortifications" posted by NoVa. We now know for sure that these are related to the fortifications, see below for a closer look

Edit: As posted by NoVa here, we now know a bit more about these buildings. It will indeed be a new chain set, the "Feathered Serpent Statue"!
This image implies there are three "main" buildings to choose from and three different chain buildings, but the naming of the assets and the fact that there is an "upgrade kit", suggests that it is level 1, 2, 3 of the same building, with three different chain options.
Feathered Serpent Statue: 3x2 Residential (road required)
In addition to the main building, there are also 3 new chain buildings that can be chained behind the main building. Each building is a 2x2 Decoration (no road required), with three different style variations each. Like other decoration buildings with variations, the specific variation will be different each time you reload the city (so you choose between the three different buildings, but can't choose which variation of a building you want).

16/01 Updated version:
Thanks to @beelzebob666 here, we finally have the background of the GE5 level! We also have the level "name", which is "Lush"! (Previous levels are called "Easy", "Medium", "Hard", and "Vulcane", though don't think these appear in the game itself).
I've also included what I assume to be the corresponding relics in the table below. They're not perfect matches all, but the fortifications seems to be placeholder assets anyways, so when those are properly added we should know more which corresponds where, if they do at all
Update 12.01.23: We finally have some proper images
Update 12.02.23: We also have some information texts with some more insight into how they will work:
What was previously "relic" placeholders have now been updated to show these icons, so will most likely indicate which fortifications are active. I've cropped the relevant part of the "ge_hud_0.png" asset from above:
There's also a "fortification flap", not sure if that's new or not
We also finally have an asset with all the fortification assets:
* The "Temple of Infiltration" is an interesting name. Perhaps related to this new bonus, and by extension perhaps the other bonus icons in that post are also related to the GE update?
We also have what appears to be a new background image for the fortifications, though the name also says "fortress", so exactly what these will be called eventually I don't quite know. Also, as can be seen in the "GE Icons" section below, this is actually a part of the "ge_icon" asset on the live servers right now, so not quite sure what to make of it.

Update 12.02.23: We also have some information texts with some more insight into how they will work:
Code:
GEFL|Activate/Deactivate the confirmation window that appears when you have at least one unused fortification building slot left (per encounter). This only applies to the fifth level of the Guild Expedition.
GEFL|Attention
GEFL|For this enounter there is at least one empty slot left to build a fortification. Are you sure you want to continue?

Thanks to @NoVa for posting achievements here:
Impressive architect |
Impressive defender |
Impressive penacho |
Lastly, earlier I made a post of some new boost items I thought were for possible new tavern boosts, but now I feel quite confident they are instead related to the Guild Expedition update
These icons seem to be based on the attack / negotiate symbols in the guild expedition, so I imagine they will work something like this:
icon_bonus_trade_special_goods: Require less special goods when negotiating
icon_bonus_trade_options: Some of the negotiation goods options are swapped with previous age goods, or possibly lower the number of options?
icon_bonus_infiltration: Infiltrate button for GE fights.
