The unit of weight measurement in the Wheel of Time series was as follows: 10 ounces = 1 pound 10 pounds = 1 stone 10 stone = 1 hundredweight 10 hundredweight = 1 ton While this makes calculations easier, it does not allow measurements to be easily understood by players/readers. In order to make things more comparable to real world weights, A Moment in Tyme has adopted British Imperial units for weight: 16 drams = 1 ounce 16 ounces = 1 pound 14 pounds = 1 stone 8 stone = 1 hundredweight 20 hundredweight = 1 ton These match up with real world weights very closely so you can better comprehend the units being used. To convert between book units and our units, we assume that one 'pound' in the Wheel of Time world matches one 'pound' in the real world, thus it is the other units that need to be converted. |
