Okay, how do you see invalidation? I agree the Large Warehouses are, in fact, better. But they come at Level 34, and cost 7000 Concrete. Which requires. . . *does math* 13 Small Warehouses to hold, or you can always raid yourself up there (which takes a while). And again, you still have to survive to level 34 on that crippled storage. I suppose if you didn't do *anything* but level up and build up your Concrete/Lumber, you might manage to do it.

And if you did that, are you really playing the game or are you gaming it?

Not even going to need an answer on that, it was mostly rhetorical. Large Warehouses also take 36 hours to build, and you can't reasonably make the resources back to build another one swiftly. The Outpost capable of going straight from Small Warehouses to Large Warehouses is one which has pretty much cut itself off from doing anything except constant Occupation to speed its resource gathering *OR* it is spending a lot more resources to build Small Warehouses (13 Small Warehouses, at 8 Population apiece, is 104 workers) while both approaches grind goods until they reach the proper level.

After you get the ability to build Large Warehouses? Yes, Warehouses and Small Warehouses should be replaced as fast as you can manage. But skipping Warehouses altogether is shooting off your leg to win a one-legged race with no prize.
