Estimate travel time for dismounts

---

This block is not in a published chapter and should not be relied upon.

Measure straight-line distance using the map scale and convert it with grid tools.

• Use ~10 km/h as baseline  speed on flat, open terrain.
• Adjust for terrain:
  •  Roads / open ground: maintain ~10 km/h.
  •  Hills, forests, etc reduce speed by: -30–50% speed.
• Add time for obstacles (fences, rivers, buildings) requiring detours or crossings.
• Adjust for unit load and type, as weight and role affect movement speed.
• Compute travel time: distance ÷ adjusted speed.
