I've certainly noticed a random element to gaining experience. As my computer has been known to overheat (don't ask how much this frustrates me) I've often had to load up the end of battle save. Right after you save it is when it tells you who is gaining what status and 75% of the time I have to reload it, there are more units that reach Vetern/elite status yhe second time. You explianation of how it works makes sense.

Don't worry. I'm not going to lose to you because of my machine.

I might lose to superior tactics and luck though.

1) The tests for progression use random numbers, funnily enough...
2) As your experience grows, gaining experience gets harder and harder. Conversely the first few stages (if inexperienced) can be fast. Moral - protect your 80+ and especially 100+ experience veteran core troops.
