SWADE pointers seem half of the right size
I started a SWADE campaign in FGU for the first time and now we needed the templates for the first time. I checked their sizes from the rulebook and the premade pointers (3 circles and 1 cone) all seemed exactly half of the size they were supposed to be. For example, the cone is 18 inches in the rules, but was 9 in FGU. We are using hex grid with each hex being the size of 1. Are we doing something wrong or are the premade pointers wrong size for the game?

As per the range rules "each inch is equal to 2 yards" (page 66 of the SWADE rules) and each "inch" is a single square or hex grid.
On page 97 of the rules there's the size of the templates - 4 yards for small, 8 yards for medium, 12 yards for large and 18 yeard long for the cone. So these equate to half the number of yards in inches.Private Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages.

Thanks for the quick help!
I feel a bit silly right now, because I had (tried to) check the distance rules before coming here for help and understood that 1 inch = 1 yard now. Turned out that I had read it too fast and filled in the blanks with expectations.
As a bonus question, is there a way to see page numbers in FGU materials?
