Guys - I like the concept but the building level reduction seems a bit severe. I find it hard to believe that such a severe reduction in building levels is actually being implemented. I've been playing for 1.5 years and used a lot of prestige to increase the size of my cities. If I wish to move them, like everybody else, to 7 food plots then it will take me SIX months to restore my building levels. And the prestige I purchased and subsequently spent was a waste.
I'll be honest and say that although I am invested in the game and very interested in where it's going this decision is enough to make me consider giving it up. It's hard to swallow that I'll have to work for 6 months to get back to where I am now...

I am on board with nearly all of this.
However, I think Warehouse level requirement should be gradated, so that if I have a town of, say, 150 pop, I don't have to build all the way to 20! I understand the thrust of it, but there is an imbalance there, i.e. a somewhat nonsensical standard.
In short, why not tie the necessary Warehouse level to population?
Addendum: anticipating possible exploits; I suppose then someone could demolish some buildings to reduce population, and thus decrease their Warehouse requirement. Is that really an exploit, though, or a realistic choice and sacrifice? "We're about to move, everyone. Tear down some of those added wings and let some of our citizens go on leave until we've relocated and rebuilt to prior levels."

So we build WH to 20 to get the tech only to have it knocked down to 12 when we move? Kinda pointless...

also is the reduction a full loss of the level or does demolition have to be researched as well returning resources?
(should demolition be a preq for exodus?)

Level 20 Warehouse is crazy. Level 12 should be enough.

future considerations must mean faster siege equipment., it currently takes 12 hrs to set up a siege, the town would be 60 squares away, unless you are setting up leading the target
