Re: Other than Spellcasting, what ELSE causes Fatigue?
I'll bet I could model that, mathematically. But I wouldn't. You have my sympathy. ;)
So three minutes? Well, it's about 18 times longer than I could last, but if we assume Adventurers are young and healthy, that sounds plausible. |

Re: Other than Spellcasting, what ELSE causes Fatigue?
Back in my younger days, we could fence for as much as 20 minutes straight, but we weren't burdened with armor and shields and our Epees were a lot lighter than a broadsword...

Re: Other than Spellcasting, what ELSE causes Fatigue?
Hey, me too: I took a course of fencing classes when I was about 16 or so. It wasn't a long course though, and I didn't pursue it, so it was little more than an introduction. (I never even got to the Épée, only the Foil.)

"So three minutes?"
Five minutes, actually. The combat turn is five seconds long. |

Yes. Yes, it is. And I knew that, too. Yet somehow, amazingly, I actually looked at "60 turns", thought "five seconds per turn"… and then, somehow, calculated: "three minutes". I must've been even more sleep-deprived than I thought. I have napped since then, and now I am appalled and humiliated. But I deny all responsibility, and blame Metrication. Somewhere in my head, "Time is Money" must have triggered, and then the difference between the decimalised British Pence and the old ones entered the equation, coupled with the tragic loss of the Shilling, all of which caused me to flip Twelves with Twenties. ;) |

Re: Other than Spellcasting, what ELSE causes Fatigue?
You want to know the worst part? I have a tablet (Nvidia Shield) sitting on my desk, positioned in front of and below my PC's monitor almost like a second, smaller screen, which I always keep opened to a scientific calculator and unit converter. (I do this because I seem to find myself playing with numbers and conversions quite a lot, and it's just faster to use the tablet than to fiddle with anything on the PC.)
So even if (60 ÷ 5) were some kind of complicated operation, there was this big glowing calculator sitting right there in front of me. But instead: "Uhhh, well, 12 Pence to a Shilling, so 20 Turns to a Minute, right? Yup!" Shameful. ;) |

What ELSE causes Fatigue?
Apparently trying to do math at 2 AM.

The wizard in my current TFT game is always cognizant of his Fatigue, and now mana, and how his ability to rest after an encounter will determine just how all out he can go with his spell slinging.
