Default Re: New Shrapnel game

Your troops are at risk simply by being on the battlefield in AoW, and Wesnoth is much the same way. The problem with the system is, as I've already explained, that it leads to the ridiculously gamey situation where you run a single unit around killing off weakened opponents to gain experience. it goes far enough that you are usually better off _not_ killing something unless your hero is around, which is really quite ridiculous from a game design standpoint.
