Units of Weight and Measure

Posted by Apostate on 11/21/19
Q: What sorts of terms are used to describe weight? Is it ICly referenced in stones or pounds? Is distance measured in feet or hands for smaller things, and miles for longer? Are there terms like fathoms and leagues used by mariners?

A: Imperial. As a compromise between the more elaborate and archaic forms that wouldn't be recognizable to players, and metric's more scientific measurement that would be inconsistent with thematic beliefs.
