We want to incentivize having a smaller Company. With fewer units, the spread becomes more even, and you don't get some units hogging all the experience. With large parties, you still run into a similar issue with some units taking a significant portion of the experience. And that's fine -- we have always wanted the player to need to consider who is getting the kill to distribute experience accordingly (in higher difficulties in particular).

Cheers, Black Voyage Games
