=== Parasang === | === Parasang === | ||
A parasang is one tile on the world map. These are comprised of 3x3 zones of 80x25 cells, for a total of 18,000(240x75) cells. Because a parasang is not a perfect square, the length of a parasang differs depending on the axis that it is measured. This disparity is not calculated in game, however. Moving in any direction will cost the same movement cost. | A parasang is one tile on the world map. These are comprised of 3x3 zones of 80x25 cells, for a total of 18,000(240x75) cells.

=== Stratum === | |||
A stratum is a single level of vertical distance, generally down. The plural form of stratum is strata. The precise scale of a stratum is unclear, as a combination of the abstractions of gameplay and the advanced sciences of the Eaters allow enormous objects to exist in otherwise small spaces. | |||
