So I can look at a 5 league hex and say, "ok it'll take you like 5 hours to get to the Salamander King's depot" instead of trying to cross reference everyones movement rates with milage. <br /><br />YMMV (get it?)Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01682401446176099294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2638993969706011706.post-84064897338954818042011-04-07T16:35:21.555-07:002011-04-07T16:35:21.555-07:00Maybe this will solve my eternal problems with the...Maybe this will solve my eternal problems with the hex size...<br />Thanks!Albert R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09691712927512834666noreply@blogger.com
