We just did a little rounding in combat settings, but estimated farther distance. In more recent years in our RPG games during combat situations I don't even bother worrying about characters or creatures speed or range and just let players move as they want within reason. Only exception is in encounters that pivotal to the outcome of the game, which I'll let the players know that were using the rules speed and range. Obviously, another exception would be something like an encounter with a creature that is significantly quicker than the players such as Quicklings, or a creature with reach. All this talk of meters vs yards reminds me of an old SNL skit called "Amerida" if IRC. Canada took over America and made them convert to the metric system and Phil Hartman flips out. He says something to the effect of "I want to live in country where I dont have to use a 3 meter pole or punt on third down". It was one of the funnier skits from the late 80s/early 90s. I looked for it on Google but couldn't find it.</blockquote>
