Leaping

[Crypt]

I think about using this simple equation (because i want to use the VF instead of the standard heroic +1/2"/hex over 6" of movement) :

 

Horizontal Leaping = STR/10 X VF (if VF>0)

You may see i keep the linear scale.

 

Because it uses the VF the difference between Combat and Non-Combat movement is naturally included and SPD becomes an important variable.

 

Ex: STR 10, SPD 2 6"X2

At max combat speed (<=6") VF=0

==> 10/10= 1"

At max non-combat speed (X2) VF=2

==> 10/10X2= 2"

 

Ex: STR 50 SPD 6 6"X4

At max combat speed (<=36") VF=3

==> 50/10 X3= 15"

At max non-combat speed (X4) VF=7

==> 50/10 X7= 35"

 

Divide by 2 for the Vertical distance.
