Movement

Overland, a character on foot covers about 20 miles a day on a road or flat land, 10 in rugged country and 5 in very rugged terrain. A light horse manages 40, 35, 15 and 5 miles, a heavy horse 30, 25, 10 and 5, and a wagon 25 on roads, 15 on flatland and 5 in rugged country, with no figure given for very rugged ground. These rates assume an average load: traveling unencumbered adds 50%, while a heavy load cuts movement by half, except for wagons.

On water a raft makes 10 miles a day, a barge 20, a canoe 25, a small sailing ship 100, and a large sailing ship, warship or galley 75.

Loads are capped too: a man can carry 10 lbs. per point of STR, a light horse 500 lbs., a heavy horse 750, and a wagon 1,000 per beast pulling it; a raft carries 5 lbs. per square foot, a canoe 600, a barge 20,000, a small sailing ship 10,000, a large one 30,000, a warship 6,000 and a galley 4,000.

For sailing craft, roll d6 for the wind. On 1 it is calm and sails give no movement; 2 brings unfavorable winds and half speed; 3-4 favorable winds and normal speed; 5 strong favorable winds and +50%; and 6 a storm lasting d4 x d12 hours that drives the ship in a random direction, rolled on d8, for as long as it rages.
