This page translates some of the D&D measurements into metric units for easier real-life comparisons.
Map Scale
The standard map we use has a scale of 23.3 mm = 1 square = 5 ft = 1.5 meters.
This gives a scale of approximately 1:65
Movement
Translation of the Movement Table of the SRD into metric measurements:
| One Round (tactical) | 15 feet | 20 feet | 30 feet | 40 feet | 60 feet |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| Hustle | 10 m | 13.3 m | 20 m | 26.7 m | 40 m |
| Run(x3) | 15 m | 20 m | 30 m | 40 m | 60 m |
| Run(x4) | 20 m | 26.7 m | 40 m | 53.3 m | 80 m |
| One Minute (local) | 15 feet | 20 feet | 30 feet | 40 feet | 60 feet |
