Ever played paintball? Do you saunter along? No, you move as fast as you can while trying not to get shot. This is "normal" speed. "Running" is throwing caution to the wind and running faster than is safe.So it makes perfect sense that the dwarf gains 40% while the elf only 25%. The dwarf isn't as spry as the elf, and has to move slower to be cautious.Also, this isn't maximum overland movement or anything, it's EFFECTIVE COMBAT SPEED as other posters have mentioned.AND the timing is abstract, and therefore CANNOT be calculated into accurate measurements of m/s.Fitz</blockquote>
