How does the AI handle promotions for leaders in champaigns? What factors does it weigh. sometimes it seems arbitrary. thanks

Leaders are not promoted in this game. Their skills (experience and morale) are increased based on the kills they get. At least that is how I understand it's working...Wild Bill ------------------ In Arduis Fidelis Wild Bill Wilder Coordinator, Scenario Design Matrix Games

Leaders are promoted in the long campaign. I am in '42 and all my leaders have been elite for awhile. I occasionally get some of my 2LTs promoted to 1LT so far. In the original SP promotions were based on experience. I could predict when they would be promoted. Your observation about promotions in SPWAW seems correct. I can not see any pattern. Perhaps there is a check after each battle with higher experiences having a better chance of promotion. ------------------ An old soldier but not yet a faded one. OK, maybe just a bit faded.
