Experience dependent upon army size?

Dragon experience is calculated based on the ability used (each ability has difference exp potential) in conjunction with a multiplier determined by a ratio of your army leadership value to enemy leadership value, at the time the ability is used.

There's no affect on whether it kills something or not (though some of the damaging abilities are the highest experience potential ones).

There's a thread for it somewhere in the dragon ability subforum.
