- This article is about the ranks an X-COM soldier can achieve, for alien ranks see Alien Ranks
Your soldiers can advance to higher ranks with experience, assuming you have a large enough number of soldiers to justify the promotion.
Higher ranked soldiers that are still in battle help keep morale high, while when they are killed or incapacited it makes it more likely that your soldiers will panic or go berserk. You may find it useful for your highest ranked officers to act as a Rear Commander.
