To be clear, you'd have everything happen the exact same way in a normal turn, but state that 2 seconds have now passed instead of only one?

Hmmm...I must say that taking 2 seconds to run 5 yards, or having someone fast-draw his sword as a free action and then attack a foe seems much more palatable to me. But everything else stays the same; i.e. battles lasting 10 turns (20 seconds instead of 10 passing) everyone still suffers FP losses? Spells now last 2 minutes instead of one minute?
