Other than Spellcasting, what ELSE causes Fatigue?
ITL suggests (and it is entirely logical) that there are many other causes of Fatigue. However, the only non-spellcasting references (to either "fatigue" or "exhaustion") that I can find are:
Am I missing anything? Or is that really all that is officially specified on the subject? |
Re: Other than Spellcasting, what ELSE causes Fatigue?
Seems to me, most of these, except berserker, are given as examples of what the GM may want to consider a fatigue penalty for. Providing it contributes to ongoing play. I don't think there is any intent to have players keep a running total of fatigue for mundane things.

But I can easily imagine Fatigue becoming relevant during a protracted battle, when the flow of combat makes it impossible to stop and rest. And I can also imagine many ways to wind up in such a battle: sieges, running battles, etc. ITL says "exertion" causes Fatigue — so all I'm wondering is, how many turns of sustained physical combat qualifies as enough exertion to cost some ST? If just running up a flight of steps will do it, how long can you keep swinging a sword before it begins to wear you out? |

If you do impose fatigue or roll or take fatigue for lengthy battles or chases, would you adjust the number of dice for these rolls for talents such as Running?

Please forgive the Newbie Questioning: it's not Criticism, it's just that I'm literally still learning the Rules, and I'm not yet accustomed to TFT's deliberate simplicity. I keep looking for charts and formulae and details that just ain't there. |

I think the fatigue rules open up a way to have an almost D+D-ish resource management side to play, which is a good thing for lots of groups. I use it as a way of presenting challenges during overland travel and exploration time scale dungeon stuff.

Woodsman talent has rules for exposure fatigue.

Re: Other than Spellcasting, what ELSE causes Fatigue?
Weight Carried and it's effects are discussed on pages 65-66 of ITL.
Exhaustion from running up stairs, page 70. Exhaustion from tunnelling, page 74. There may be other places. It might be useful at some point to have these things combined for ease of reference somewhere. Perhaps in the next Companion or Hexagram? |
