Will there be any additional systems for squaddies, like promotions?

Discussion

I feel like adding a very basic promotion system would be cool for squaddies. After early game, managing squaddies isnt really relevant, so losing them starts to feel like it doesnt matter. Having a bit more reason to keep them alive and give them personality would be nice.

I think something basic, like each squaddie can promote up to 3 times, adding a +1 to a random stat.

So some veteran squaddies in a squad, could give a nice little stat boost. And with the right combo of squaddies, you can specialize into certain things. Like stacking all squaddies who happened to roll a +1/+2/+3 on AP into one squad.

Minor enough to make it not a major point of worry, but enough to matter, add to squad customizability, and give your units more personality.
