Forced March

Using a mix of rules from DnD 3.5, PF1, PF2 and DnD 5e.

• After travelling a Rigourous March an continuing, a character is performing a Forced March and needs to make a Fortitude check and then incrementally 1/8 the time* of travel
• A Rigourous March has been travelled after:
  • Full hustle (200% speed for 10 min x Con modifier)
  • 4h travel in weather heavier than a light drizzle
  • 2h travel; Incredible cold (< -61º)
  • 4h travel; Extreme/Severe/Mild cold (-0º to -29º)
  • 8h travel; Normal (1º-34º)
  • 4h travel; Mild/Severe/Extreme heat (35º-59º)
  • 2h travel; Incredible heat (> 60º)
  • If the travel combines heavy weather AND uncomfortable temperatures, use the lowest number and subtract 1h.
• *For each condition affecting travel lower than 8h, modify the incremental time of which to make Fortitude checks:
  • 4h = Half = every 30 minutes
  • 2h = Qarter = every 15 minutes
  • Hustle = every 10 min
• Fortitude check: DC 12 + 2 for every previous check
  • Crit Success: Skip the next Fortitude check and don't count either this or the skipped one for calculating future DCs.
  • Success: No effect
  • Fail: 1D4 damage and gain a Fatigue level
  • Crit Fail: 1D12 damage and gain two Fatigue levels

Pathfinder 2

• Hustle = double speed for Con mod x 10 min + (minimum 10 min).

• Move Action + Standard Action to move = Hustle.
• Charge = Full-Round Action: x2 speed.
• Run in heavy armor = Full-Round Action: x3 speed. No Dex AC.
• Run unencumbered = Full-Round Action: x4 speed. No Dex AC.
• Run with Run feat = Full-Round Action: +1 speed. Retain Dex AC.
• Run rounds = to Con modifier. In 5 min periods of normal activity.

100ft	20	16.09	12	32.19	78	125.53

• Walk: 8h is OK. More is Forced March.
• Hustle: 1h per sleep cycle is OK.
  • 1.5h = 1 nonlethal. 2h = +2nl. 3h = +4nl. 4h = +8nl. 5h = +16nl. Etc.
  • 1nl = Fatigue. Remove nonlethal to remove fatigue.
• Run: Con checks (not long). Start/stop becomes Hustle.
• Forced March: 8h walk = OK. +1h = Con check DC 10 +2/h. Fail = 1d6+(h-8) nl damage + Fatigue.
• Mounts: Automatically fail checks. Take lethal damage + Fatigue.

The above is also affected by terrain. Check the Pathfinder rules. In general, it's "75% the max speed" with a road and "half the speed" without road. Moors, plains and tundra are 75%. Jungle is 25%.

Fact: Castles had a 10 mile effective radius (return march on horse) [1].

Evasion & Pursuit

• Combat
  • Speed determines first.
  • Same speed characters: "Few" rounds = Opposed Dex check for each round.
