Celestials

Ground and Landing

Maps

A Celestial with a hex map template  a pair of maps per hex side (one North, one South), plus a pair of North and South polar maps for each hex the template occupies. For example, a one-hex moon would have eighteen maps, twelve for the hexes' six sides and one each for its top and bottom.

Map Sizes

For the playtest, we're using 10x10 hex maps for each side, and a hexagonal hex map with sides 10 hexes long for the poles. Each hex is 5km.
