I'm gonna guess no. One of my tests had a fleet with plenty of PDC facing several ships with missles. While the ships gained individual experience at a slow rate, the fleet gained none. Even with it being only a 1 in 4 chance of getting any experience, with the number of missles my fleet destroyed I would think I would have seen something.
Geo, I'm confused. Seems like you were testing for experience gain for shooting down missiles. I don't think missiles are units.

Noone has stated that they have exploited the bug, so noone was accused of anything. Anyone that decides to exploit the bug in a PBW game would be a pretty low person in my book. This, of course, is why you have the game host either explicitly allow or ban all of the known bug exploits.
Wow Fyron.
Are you saying that players cheat or can cheat in PBW, wow I was going to try it.
Age of Empires PBW has it so you can't cheat, why can't this be the same with se4?

Missiles aren't units but you still get ship experience for shooting down them.

You are correct, they aren't. But as Asmala points out ships get experience for destroying them. I think that once the missle is launched in combat, it's treated the same as a unit. I am just guessing on that though.
