I hadn't seen any answer about the capital changing feature yet so I thought I would ask as I am at the point of having 9 cities and while I won't be at the point of settling a 10th for a while, I wanted to know if there is any news. I just wanted to know if there was any idea when the ability to change the 'capital' designation of our cities at will is going to go live or where it fits in relative to the other developments currently in the works.

I can't see that working tbh - particularly with things like advance res production where adding just one more level would bring production down ridiculously low (one city outprouducing many others without any sov bonuses) unless the entire structure of build level - production time mechanic was changed.

I have wondered if a L21-ceiling in capital cities would add to strategy without adversely affecting game balance.

Not yet. I guess it will arrive soon though.

Currently there is no particular advantage to having a capitol as a particular city that I am aware of other than for players close to achieving 10 cities.

I am contemplating a rather lengthy exodus.  Will my town consume food while it's in transit?

You would lose anything that is produced while the warehouse or storehouse is building.  If you prestiged the warehouse or storehouse up to finish immediately after landing, then you would not lose anything.  Otherwise, since resources are added to storage one at a time when they are finished, you will lose each one when it finishes until the warehouse or storehouse is completed.

If you have too many advanced resources, I'm sure I could find a fledgling alliance that could use em ... Wink

I am aware that the production of resources and troops cease but it did not say that you would lose the things in production, only of the things that are already produced.

What do you mean Rill, "you would lose the production from when your city landed until the upgrade to level 13 of either storehouse or warehouse is complete" ... from my understanding of what you have just said is, if i upgrade my warehouse or storehouse upon landing my city then i wont lose whats being produced?
