Crackpot crews should be able to earn a buff of some sort due to Verteran status similar to Command and Conquer games... (or old Civ games)
Ones that reach a general status aught to be able to regain water if idle. more action points or movements or self repair if idle, even in red space.

They already gain crazy huge bonuses. Maybe in the next title we'll consider less focused, more broad types of bonuses.

Also a thought... all ships show a badge number or rank when not selected...

Veteran bonuses are accrued and granted by your ship's XP.

Where are the changes discussed? Looking for the results. Three kills equals plus something
In the ships abilities summary screen maybe show a vet bonus as applied

Is there a practical limit? If my first explorer has 100 kills does the benefit ever end?
Would there be a way without selecting the unit to know how many badges he has? Similar to a rank icon on C&C games?

Similar to a rank icon on C&C games? Has 100 Kills or 100XP? Since XP is granted in a randomized fashion, they don't always line up. Depending on the Hull Type and the Design Level, the upper limit is somewhere between 25 and 100 XP. I'll look at this as something that might need to be added to the Library. There aren't going to be badges added to ST 4X, but perhaps our next fleet battle / 4X game will!
