Hi,

Usually when a soldier enters a battle-zone he watch his every step.

In WinSPMBT, an infantry unit, when marching in a road, may travel up to 7 hexes (350 meters in one turn (5 minutes). If I am not wrong this is translated to 4,2 Km per hour, which represents a forced march for a fully equipped soldier.
Inside a forest a unit may travel 2 hexes per turn (100 meter per 5 minutes) because of two reasons. First he must bypass the obstacles and secondly he must advance in a very cautious way due to the fact that he doesn't really know if an enemy is hidden behind a tree!

Concerning the fatigue level, I will agree with you that this is something interesting in a battle but you must take into consideration that most of these battles last for 15-20 turns (75-100 minutes).

cheers,
Pyros
