How many miles squared do you think Tamriel is? Any ideas?

That all depends on whose reckoning you trust.

According to TES2, High rock should be approximately 161,000 km^2 and therefore the continent should be massive, the size of europe or so; whereas according to TES4, Cyrodiil is ~15 mi^2 and therefore Tamriel should be the size of Rhode Island. Just approximates, of course.

lol :rofl: I keep forgetting that what Oblivioners are to Morrowinders, are what Morrwinders are to Daggerfallers. Man, I need to get a copy of that game.

And the Arena-nites hate us all!!

Meh, in game size is a matter of game play and development. Since the aim isn't to build Tamriel to scale it's not really relevant for Lore.

We do however know from the first PGE that the distance from Mournhold to Red Mountain is about 250 miles.
