> I haven’t made my mind up yet, but I’m starting to think that it would be better if there were decreasing returns of SPs per mission, but starting at a higher return than now. So for the first 10 missions you get 15SPs for each, from 10 to 15, 10 SP each, and then 5 SPs. That way you would get the max 300 SPs you used to get with the previous system after 13 missions (provided you trained the recruit to lvl7 first), and though you could still theoretically max out the soldier, it would be less of a deal losing a veteran of 30+ missions.

+1, my Idea from above:

The differences between the individual characters is quite considerable and since everyone always receives the same SP per mission little will change. The ‘stragglers’ will always lag behind the more advanced and the one maxed out character will continue to get senseless SP, which are somehow ‘wasted’ (actually he has 150 SP and i can do nothing with them and yes, he is pretty OP and can handle some missions alone).
