In most of my games, I see the AI with high level (8,9,10) troops. How do you go about leveling your troops high? I understand that as you progress in era's troops will naturally start at a higher level, and some buildings can give experience; however, even when I have an army led by a hero for an entire game that is constantly attacking (pacifying villages, taking out roaming armies, attacking troops inside my borders, etc) my highest level troops are typically around 7 by the time the game ends.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

pacifying villages, taking out roaming armies, attacking troops inside my borders.
You need to tackle tougher enemies to rack up the experience.
How do you usually win games? Diplomacy?
I play as the Necrophage and am constantly at war with my neighbours, invading and attacking.
The higher level army you fight, the more XP you get.
Honestly it can be a pain in the arse grinding the larger battles but thats how you get the XP you're looking for.
