From what I have read and seen I get the impression that there are quite a few older players - people who have been in the game for years - who have a special relationship with "their" region. If you follow through with your plan and all of a sudden dissolve these regions, which, at least in the case of the Mdieast, IDS and Northeast, are healthy and function well, I predict that a substantial part of these guys will leave the game.

That's unfortunate I guess.

Well if we want to make an actual change, let's get a look at the constitution for a second.

https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/Article_IV_of_the_Third_Constitution

Article 4 states that any change in the regional boundaries requires two things: Consent of the regions involved, and consent of the Senate. While that sounds exactly like its something for an amendment, it doesn't seem to be case here. Would this instead be a resolution or act?

There is more than just changing boundaries required here so an amendment is very necessary.

You could accomplish the same objective by creating a process that allowed people to pick new locations free of any restrictions.

No, that wouldn't do anything about the zombie problem.

What zombie problem?

A committee is destined for failure, either we make the tough choices here and now or forget about it.
