Travel time is presented in miles per day. Tactical movement is given in inches (both on land and in the air). In fact, such is the standard for all tactical movement in the game (as opposed to abstract measures of travel time). Unless you're at sea, as I previously stated (and you have now confirmed). I find that to be the hallmark of ill considered design.  If by "convert" you mean "make something up" — then, yes, you're right. There aren't, however, any actual rules in the DMG for converting miles per hour on the water into inches of tactical movement. This is a great time to get back to all of those monsters you keep mentioning. Monsters don't have siege attack values. How is damage inflicted by monsters measured in the game? In HPs. So, either Hull Values function like HPs when determining damage from monster attacks or monsters aren't capable of damaging ships. Again, another thing I consider a hallmark of ill considered design. The thing is, everything I've mentioned is supported wholly by the RAW in the DMG. That said, I can see how your own interpretations of the RAW can also hold true under certain circumstances. I understand the game just fine, thanks. I'd love to continue this discussion, but since you've resorted to talking down your nose at me (as usual), it's over.</blockquote>
