Hi,
I was thinking and looking in the net about the speed of a horse on a normal terrain but I couldn't find any lead so far.
But then I remembered that there was a program about speed, time and terrain.
does anyone have any knowledge about it?

Don't know any program but the PHB lists the speed of a light horse (101-300 lb.) on normal terrain at 6m/h or 48m/day.
Maybe that helps. |

how would that speed be affected in a hadicaped terrain?
like in a forest, a hill with a no good road, marshes with highway, greenland with only paved roads.
and also what would be the movement speed of a marching army on above conditions? |
