Your troops gain experience, morale, strength, intelligence and other attributes in each battle. When you click on the soldier icon you see little bars representing their skill level. You would think that highly experienced, intelligent, and motivated troops would perform better at all things than inexperienced ones, and you would be right. Take your panzerschreck team, for example. During their first battle they may not do so well, as they're new to tank hunting. But keep them with in the command radius of an officer or NCO who can teach them, give them a taste of combat experience without getting them killed, and during the next battle in your campaign they will be more experienced, intelligent, strong, etc. That means they aim better, they hide better, and they kill more tanks. When all their individual attributes are maxed out, you have a veteran AT team who know their business. They can hide in an open field and kill tanks at unbelievable ranges. Same with any other specialized teams you may have. A flamethrower team that has survived a few battles will learn how to use their flamethrower. Instead of just sitting there and letting themselves be killed, as flamethrower teams are infamous for doing in Close Combat, an experienced team can walk through a hedgerow and crisp fry everything in their path to a crackely crunch, and the crispy critters won't even be able to see them in time to shoot back.
