Basically, one combat turn is three seconds, as per the main book. The movement for a human at a run is 25 meters over a combat turn. 25 meters in three seconds? Thats really only .5 seconds short of what the fastest man in the world can do. Am I missing something? If not, then how do you handle movement? As is, or house ruled?
