Default Re: Map Scale Question: Help Please

This is an interesting problem.

Not to be pedantic or anything but, hexes are not square.
That means a different vertical distance and horizontal distance. The long axis is approx. 1.2 times the size of the smaller axis.

In general you are correct though, 50 yds = 150 ft.

Acually, its 150 ft the short axis and 180 ft the long one.
I don't think the game engine accounts for that distinction, though.

Anyway, this has been a hassle of mine when using hexes in scenario/game design/playing.
