In Salem we have auth in town bells to fill it all we need is silver and that is major issue because we do not need new citizens, we need more stalls and items to sell.
Silver sink is good, but auth based only on silver is also opportunity for dominating faction to build few HVs and visit them for while with purse.
Does town 100x100 with 750 auth filled with walls and braziers should exist?
Imho not, it is dead/empty town and it should be easy to raid.
Maybe more people would start to create larger towns if we would have another bar, something like it was in HnH, to fill it you would need to level up biles or profs, of course current silver-based-auth should stay, we would just had two bars on town bells.
This-new-bar max cap should also depend on town size and each +1 bile and prof should fill it a little, of course character who just made gluttony from 100 to 110 should give more to town than noob-alt from 5 to 20, same with profs higher level prof should give more to town. Plus there should also be time based bonus, so new recruit would give less than citizen who is 3 weeks in same town.
And now best part...but
if your town-live-bar is filled between 40% to 60% you see no difference from current state, but if it drop under 40%, soak and HP of walls and braziers (other structures too maybe) should be lowered by 50% or more. If live-bar will be above 60% soak and HP for walls and braziers should be buffed 100-200%.
Of course it is good place for sqrt magic to make smoother transitions.
I like the idea of a "living authority" but how much of a deterrent will it be to village/hv'ers
