[QUOTE="howandwhy99, post: 5124379, member: 3192"] It really depends upon the movement abilities possible for the PCs. The faster they can move, the larger in scope the sandbox hexes need to be. As the level of detail is up to the DM, the faster the movement, the larger the scale, typically the less detail a lower scale area receives. So you might have a highly detailed setting, but have very little detail when played on the scale of a human body within that setting. Most modules (miniature setting really) are based around the human scale and have a lot of detail at that level. I sandbox with slow movement at level 1 and fastest movement at highest level, level 10. By the time level 10 is reached the accumulation of modules has created an area large enough to accommodate the fastest speeds available. It's largely a matter of DM and player preference, but most RPGs deal with activity within the human scale. 5 or 10 foot squares, miles per day, etc. [/QUOTE]
