Due to popular request, I'm posting the work in progress.  I updated the Flyer Benefits table since last time.    First, the core experience rules.
=================================

Starting Experience
All formations start with D3 experience except formations that have a Supreme Commander character which start with D3+5 experience.

Gaining Experience
A detachment gains experience points for each battle it is involved in.  Each modifier can only be applied once during a game.  Ground unit formations include any non-flyer formation with non-war engine units, even if they have a war engine included, for example, an Ork Warband transported in a Battlefortress or a Superheavy Tank company with an attached infantry platoon.  WE formations are exclusively made up of WEs.  Flyer formations are, obviously, made up of flyers.

Ground Unit or War Engine Experience
+1 fighting in a battle
+1 If the formation claims an objective
+1 if the formation participates in an assault
+1 wiping out a formation
+1 destroying a War Engine
-2 If the formation falls below half strength

Flyer Experience
+1 fighting in a battle
+1 reducing an enemy ground unit to half strength using ground attack
+1 wiping out a ground formation
+1 wiping out a flyer formation
+1 destroying a War Engine
-2 If the formation falls below half strength

Experienced formations
Formations can be one of five levels of experience; green, experienced, veteran, crack and elite. Which level a formation is depends on the number of experience points they have.

XP Level
0 Green
1-5 Experienced
6-10 Veteran
11-20 Crack
21+ Elite or Battle Honor (WE-only)

Ground Unit Benefits
Green - Formation removes one fewer Blast marker when it rallies (minimum of 1).
Experienced - No benefit
Veteran - Formation may re-roll one rally roll per game
Crack - Formation is considered to have an inherent Leader ability
Elite - Formation is Inspiring

War Engine Benefits
Green - Formation removes one fewer Blast marker when it rallies (minimum of 1).
Experienced - No benefit
Veteran - Formation may re-roll one rally roll per game
Crack - Formation is considered to have an inherent Leader ability
Battle Honor - Formation gains one Battle Honor (and an additional battle honor at every 10 points thereafter, i.e. 31, 41, 51, and so on.)

Flyer Benefits
Green - Formation not allowed to make Jink rolls
Experienced - No benefit
Veteran - Formation only receives BM for exiting opposite table edge
Crack - +1 modifier to activation rolls
Elite - Formation can re-roll failed Jink attempts

Wiped Out
A formation that is totally destroyed in a game is Wiped Out. The formation loses all of its experience. Reroll the formation?s base experience value. The formation subtracts 1 experience point from its new starting value to reflect the poor quality of reinforcements that are brought in to rebuild the formation.

Reorganization
If a formation adds, subtracts, or changes more than 10% of its points value between battles, it loses 1d3 experience point from its total.  If it adds, subtracts, or changes more than 25% of its points value between battles, it loses half its total experience points.  If it adds, subtracts or changes more than 50% of its value, reroll its experience because it is effectively a new formation.


Replacing Casualties
After every battle all casualties are replaced and all vehicles repaired in the formations which fought, so formations are always considered to be at full strength.

The Battle Honors are in various states of acceptability as far as I'm concerned.  Most are fine.  A few need tweaked.  Some I just have a note that they need something to fill in the blank.
========

Battle Honors
If a War Engine is eligible to receive a Battle Honor honor, roll 2D6 and consult the table below to determine what type of honor the WE gets. The player may choose any honor within the rolled category.
2-3 Player's Choice
4-5 Crew Skill (Hive Mind for Tyranids)
6-7 Commander Skill (Hive Mind for Tyranids)
8-10 Upgrade (Bio-Engineering for Tyranids)
11-12 Player's Choice

A WE that is reduced to below half DC loses experience as normal, but may not lose Battle Honors.  A WE that is destroyed loses all Battle Honors unless it has an ability that specifically states otherwise.

A crew that survives destruction of the WE retains all Crew and Commander Skill Battle Honors and ? of its experience.  A Commander who survives retains all Commander Skill Battle Honors and rolls for the new crew?s experience as if the WE were a Supreme Commander formation, i.e. d3+5.  A WE may not gain new Battle Honors until it has gained enough experience to account for any existing Battle Honors.


Battle Honor Points Cost for one-off games:
Small WEs (Superheavies, etc.) up to 300 pts - 25pts/WE in detachment
Medium WEs (Scout Titans) - up to 750 pts - 50 pts/WE in detachment
Large WEs (Battle Titans) - up to 1000pts - 100 pts/WE
Extra Large (Imperator and Mega-) - above 1000 pts - 200 pts/WE

Obviously, one-offs aren't supposed to be the real use of these and they are not truly balanced.  In most cases, though, the above point values produce something very similar to the cost of upgrades in the AMTL or OGBM.

Obviously, the "reorganization" penalties would not apply to Tyranids.  Experience points should be tracked by Synapse Creature or Independent Brood.

Some Tyranid players may notice that none of the benefits help them until they get to the Elite/Battle Honors level.  I think that's appropriate based on their background.
