Do Rewards Scale With Comparative Difficulty?

[Born2Hula]

Sorry for the ugly title - couldn't think of putting it any other way. Okay, do the rewards get better if the enemy is "rated" stronger - I.e. Weak, strong, lethal etc?

I just finished the first island after grabbing the leadership skill ASAP - because of that everything appeared as "weak" to me and ran away, and now I feel like I'm completely under levelled for the second island.

I've seen some things that seem to say this is true. Also, doesn't that mean Mage gets a hidden boost? As their armies are weaker so they'll end up fighting more "lethal" "strong" armies etc.

P.s. Sorry for the terrible writing, have been at work too long. Also ime not talking about the "absolute" enemy power - obviously stronger enemies give better rewards, but the comparative power - I.e. If I leave half my army at home will I get bette rewards for defeating the same enemy. I'd test this myself but the only enemies left in my game are all "invincible" difficulty anyway =\
