Campaigns and Experience

Source: Core Rulebook 3E, p. 159

Raw recruits, new to the horrors of warfare in the 41st millennium, are less resolute in the face of enemy fire, whereas units who have many battles and victories under their belts will become hardened fighters with many specialist skills. The following system allows your army to build up experience by fighting and winning battles, destroying enemy troops and generally learning how to fight.
