Hello to all Leader! I'm new on this forum but i'm SL from 2 years
I wanted to give my opinion to the new SL xp system. The solution to earn xp using the pistol seems a lot limiting, is a good idea to be able to arrange the old system with a new one that holds account of the combat profession of the group...What do u think about it?

From the SL Q & A we just got from the Devs (a few posts below yours)
3. Why are we forced into using pistols to level Squad Leader? Combat XP or another system is a better solution.
We are definitely considering this for the squad leader revamp.

This should be an easy fix. The Devs need to change SL so that it requires Combat exp instead of pistols. That way people can get their exp with the weapon of their choice. Might even see a few melee squad leaders out there eventually.

I'm all in favor of an agnostic XP system. This means that the SL gets xp regardless of what weapon he is using because his xp derives from either his personal combat abilities, or the combat abilities of his group with SL abilities being additional SL bonuses (preferred)
I think one of the problem that the devs might have with this is if you make SL happen concurrently with combat and you take out a creature with 5k weapon xp and you get 5k SL as well it seems unfair to the people who are CMs getting 2k pistol and 3k medical.

If you're going to make the exp. for squad leaders not depend on a certain weapon, why not just bring back squad leadership exp. like it was before? What was so broken about that? I'd much rather be able to level in squad leader and keep my rifleman template than have to pick uppistols.
