Some bad news:

Thrawn: Will units gain veterancy over time? If so, how will this be applied to both ground and space forces?
Petroglyph-Adam: Since the battles rage fast and furious, the likelyhood of forces surviving for a long period of time makes veterancy moot. However, heroes will persisit, and since they offer such a dramatic shift in power when in battles, they act as your veterans, so-to speak.

Some good news:

FFDmh2223: Can you train soldiers to become more effective and will soldiers gain experience?
Petroglyph-Chris: You can upgrade soldiers with unique offensive and defensive abilities. But they will not gain experience overtime, they will persist though.

This might mean that you can upgrade individual soldiers, so you could have sort of have afew "Veterans" . they probably just meant that you upgrade a certain type though. still, there is a chance that we'll get osmetihng close to xp...
