I'm sorry to harp on this point, but why are you doing square root calculations? You don't need to know the volume if you know the radius and height.

You determine if the possible subject is within Radius hexes of the origin, and within Height hexes of the origin (assuming you're measuring orign from the bottom or top of the cylinder). No square roots involved at all.

And now I'm REALLY lost - how does changing the height make the radius somehow different from the standard AE enhancement?
