Experience effects

Well, that serves as some motivation to bring peasants into battle. I only use them as garrisons.

if kills are being tracked individually i dont see why they dont go back to to the green replacements.

like i said before it added a nice extra element to the game and made your verents that muhc more precious.

hmm is just me or does using that word make anyone else feel wiered after the LOTR movies lol

But there should be limits to what kind of units any unit can get retrained into. Things should follow lines, melee to melee, missile to missile, etc. The end result should be a less experienced but overall more effective unit.

I whole heartedly agree...

How many of us have had to disband a cherished unit of Mailed Knights because they cant compete in the later game.

I would dearly like to see the ability to upgrade to other unit types, albeit with a modest penalty to the number of Chevrons they carry across.

Perhaps, if the game mechanics allowed, we could give the unit a name... Just 10 or so characters long, that appeared when you hover the mouse over the unit.

Who wouldn't like to see an elite stack of units, that you've built over 200 turns, commanded by your best (titled) General.

Wouldn't you become more involved with these units over time, rushing them to kill rebels, guarding them against turning rebel themselves on their way back to the Citadel for re-training...

Imagine it on the multiplayer campaigns...

Could it be done?
