movement in advanced vehicle combat...

[loconius]

on annother note, how far does a vehicle move on a grid in T20, it says how large a hex was but not what the stats translate to (asside from actually wipping out the physics and graphing calc.)

just posting again to bring the question back to top

Each hex is 75 meters accross - each round is 30 seconds

hexs/hour == k/hr * 13 1/3
hexs/30 sec == hexs/hr / 120
so
hexs/30 sec == k/hr /10

Thats close enough for government work -

so a jeep (tl5 p287), starting stationary on a road spends a round accelerating (by it's accel rate) and is now travelling at 12 km/hr -> 1hex per turn (2 every 5 turns).

A couple of turns later, it accelerates to 25km/hr and is now moving 2.5 hexes per turn (ie 2 then 3 then 2 etc)

and so on.

Unless it was important, I would try and keep all speeds to a whole number of hexes per turn (you can't do this for slow things - but they are rare)

At least that's my interpretation.

thanks a million, i wasn't sure if there was a straight forward answer to that or if i had to calculate it . thanks for the answer man.
