'''Tile''', '''hex''' or '''square''' are all terms typically used as the basic movement unit for heroes and creatures. ''Hex'' term is used mainly in combat situations when determining the distance a creature can move on the battlefield, determining a width of a creature or a radius of a spell effect. ''Square'' term is used to determine the distance a hero can travel on [[adventure map]] . The term ''Tile'' can be used for both situations.
