RE: Me Back

I sometimes use a rule of thumb on terrain:
Slopes of 30 degrees or less are hills (or whatever standard geohex sope
to
level 1 is). Slopes of 30.x-60 degrees are mountains. Slopes > 60 are
cliffs.

This and FMA's original post brings up a problem I've had with DSII
movement

mechanics all along - how to distinguish between hills and mountains. 
It 
seems a silly point, but with rules that simply state mountains allow 
certain movement an hills certain movement, it becomes important to have
a 
standard - is that a big hill or a small mountain.  Has anyone done 
alternate movement/terrain rules to clarify this?  [snip]
