Shadow Walk and Tactical Combat


Rules Questions


If a group of adventurers is travelling through the Plane of Shadow using Shadow Walk, and the GM rolls an encounter, what is their tactical movement speed?

In the region of shadow, you move at a rate of 50 miles per hour, moving normally on the borders of the Plane of Shadow but much more rapidly relative to the Material Plane.

Holding mine. It depends whether the threat is coming from the shadow or material plane. You are on the boarder. If it is on the shadow plane you are normal speed. If the threat is from the material plane you move 367 feet for every 5 feet of your movement.

And make it easy of yourself ... make it 370ft per 5 ft or even 400ft per 5ft (80:1).

Which means if it is on the material plane it will need to be able to move very quickly to keep up with something on the shadow plane


We have a rule for how tactical speed translates to overland speed.30' tactical speed=3mph or 6mph hustling

I'd extrapolate from that a speed of 500'/1000'.
