Turning around takes 1 hex/square of movement.

distances in hexes/squares:

1 hex = 3 1/3 feet; 2 = 6 2/3 feet; 3 = 10 feet; 4 = 13 1/3 feet; 5 = 16 2/3 feet; 6 = 20 feet; 7 = 23 1/3 feet; 8 = 26 2/3 feet; 9 = 30 feet; 10 = 33 1/3 feet; 11 = 36 2/3 feet; 12 = 40 feet; 13 = 32 1/3 feet; 14 = 46 2/3 feet; 15 = 50 feet; 18 = 60 feet; 21 = 70 feet; 27 = 90 feet; 30 = 100 feet.

Note on 15” movement rate:

A Barbarian can do this rate for up to 9 hours if the character has taken no damage. A Barbarian character can still move at this rate even if they have taken damage. Example: A Barbarian with 45 hit points has taken 23 hit points in damage. That is 9 hours times 0.51 = 4.59 hours can move at this rate.

All other character races can move a maximum of 1 hour at this rate. After the 6 turns, 1 hour, the character must slow to a 6” movement rate for 4 hours of walking, or sleep for 2 hours, before going back to the 15” movement rate. If the character continues at the 15” rate after 1 hour, the player must roll 4d6 vs. Constitution. failure means the character has collapsed. The character must rest for 4 hours after 3d10 + 5 rounds of unconsciousness.
