I'm a little confused here, can I get some help?

For Open-Sea Voyaging:

"An Ocean hex is 6 miles in size. Your party of Lilliputians can travel, by ship, one hex per Watch (six hours)."

For Over-Island Travel:

"Much like Open Sea Voyaging, Over-Island Travel is broken into 6-mile hexes. On foot, your party travel one hex or mile per Watch. Difficult terrain (streams, dense jungles/forests, hills, etc.) require two Watches per mile traveled."

It says on foot, your party travels one hex or mile per Watch, so are hexes Over-Island actually one mile? For Over-Island Travel, hexes being 6 miles also has means some weird stuff.

  • Over-Island hexes and Open-Sea hexes both being 6 miles means the party travels on foot as fast as a ship does, which seems kind of slow for a ship or really fast for a person
  • If the party travels one mile per watch and hexes are 6 miles, it would take 3 days to travel one hex in difficult terrain if they don't sleep at all
  • If the party travels one mile per watch and hexes are 6 miles, it normally takes 36 hours of walking to travel one hex

I'm a little confused here, though this is a really small problem that's not a huge deal in the end either way. Thank you in advance for answering!

land based hexes are one mile. Lilliputians are 6” tall so it takes em a couple hours to traverse a mile.
