	The possible points earned are dependent on your current Strength. At recruit minimum (20 Strength), an average of 6.0 points are earned (range 0 - 12). Thus, while your soldiers may be weak initially, they can usually reach a reasonable level within a few combat missions. Points awarded after missions slope evenly down to where, at cap minus one (69), an average of 1.0 points are earned (range 0 - 2).		The possible points earned are dependent on your current Strength.

	Unlike real life, carrying heavy weights throughout a mission has '''no effect''' on Strength improvement (sigh). All this does is give you an encumbrance penalty at the start of the next combat turn. Only primary actions cause Strength to increase.

	A soldier's strength controls how much weight a soldier can carry before being [[Time Units#Encumbrance\|encumbered]]. Once encumbered, a penalty is applied to the refresh rate of the soldier's [[Time Unit]] at the start of the next turn.

	Each point of strength represents a unit of weight that a soldier can carry. A rifle clip for example costs 3 units of strength. These weight values are used in conjunction with the soldier's strength level to determine how far the object can be thrown.
