How big do you think a tile is in real life? Like in Minecraft a block is one meter. So in Polytopia what are the tile sizes? How big are the units? I guess this doesn't make sense because while curries are one time but maybe irl scale one unit is like one battalion. What do you think?

Polytopians are only 4 inches tall! So adjust your measurements accordingly :)

Not sure about the battalions vs single units in representation, haven't heard that before and it would imply units within the battalions are dying then being resurrected when healed.

I can confirm that they are battalions, not single units.

And no, not resurrected.

I think they would be smaller than that, given that the a level 1 city is already that size, and as they level up they grow vertically. Additionally, the catapult is able to shoot something 3 tiles away. So I think a days walk (which the internet is telling me is upwards of 30km) is probably a bit too much. 

Canonically, the cities don't actually stack. That's just an abstraction.
