Admins, do you have an informed answer to the question or not? 

My coal mate had more than 100 PP and after the rest got 25 back. 

As for me, I only have 62 after my reset. 

Would you come with some useful informaton, please?

Don't understand why would anyone ever want low lvl ?

It's exactly what i try to avoid , low lvl positions and it's rewards , doing PP for close to 2 years.

Giving low level positions is also a very very waist of time/resources/money , especially when your city reached high level.

If it was after me , i would prefer a single position that you can hit forever (Call it xerxes and that's it) , so that i know for sure that i will always get my max reward if i get luky and filled the bank. So i never have to worry that plarium will trap and offer me the reward at a much lower lvl than "normal/expected" so it will force my ars to buy drachmas or wait a year (train) to continue. Anyways , this is just me , for the ones that likes it the way it is , have fun !

This is just one of the mechanism plarium uses to drive drachma sales. There's no "conversion" as you keep like it for people to know it as.
If you had no intent about this feature to drive massive drachma sales , then why can't i think that you could make the conversion of units from lower type/rank to upper grades with something like the instant exchange at the argentarium (without asking for drachmas again).

d3, that is exactly what you need. Since you are not a coiner or/and hacker, your troops numbers are limited.

Thus, the only option for you is to start hitting low positions, I suggest at least 10, so you still have most troops intact after that. Then you hit the largest ones; leaving small portions in each, until you spend almost everything. And then you start hitting leftovers, from the to 140s and 50s (in my case). That is the way to go. Otherwise, you will find yourself without both troops and payouts

BTW, smowman, you forgot that winter is over :)

Plarium, achoo, no response to the question? 

Still silence?

Another issue: I desperately need low lvl positions, keep purchasing - get only high lvl, which doesn't allow me hit enough i order to get a good payout.

My friend on the contrary, need high lvl - but gets only low lvl. Another evidence that plarium deliberately creates algorithms in order  to hurt players - you always get what is opposie to your needs.
