Guide: Fatigue quick reference

[WraithLord]

This is a quick reference of things that effect fatigue.

Thank you DonC, archaeolept, P3D, MaxWilson, Edi, QM, Micah, ano and omnirizon for the information.

climate:
heat+3 adds +2 to enc. FR ( > 0%) have no penalty.
Cold+3 adds +2 to enc. CR ( > 0%) have no penalty. Cold blooded +1 + 3*(level of cold) and CR does not reduce encumberence.


Terrain:
Swamp. +2 enc. unless the unit has swampwalk.
Underwater. penalties for poor amphibians and units normally unable to enter seas increase encumbrance by 1 and thus fatigue.
Adds 3 encumbrance for poor amphibians.


Items/Weapons:
Axe of hate. causes AoE fatigue (how much?)
Black Halberds (of MA and LA Ulm). 15 AN aoe 1 fatigue to sacred units.
Mage Bane deals 100 irresistible fatigue per hit
Oal Khan's Sceptre has Area Fatigue (how much ???)

Spells:
Increase fatigue:
Heat from Hell. Adds base 5, then +1 for each level of heat, -3 if its raining.
Rigor Mortis. All non-undead take 10 fatigue every turn. The spell effects only half the battlefield.
Curse of Stones. ???
Grip of Winter. Add 5 to fatigue. The spell effects only half the battlefield and depends on heat/cold scales.
Heat from hell. Add 5 to fatigue. The spell effects only half the battlefield and depends on heat/cold scales. Rain decreases the effect by ???.
Stellar cascades.
ghost grip
Thunder strike (???)
Magma eruption
Sleep cloud
Tune of Dancing Death
Desiccation

Decrease fatigue:
relief
Soothing Song
Summon earth power
Earth bless


Auras:
Heat. Like heat from hell: a base number +/- scale and a penalty for rain, with DRNs added in.
Cold. Like grip of winter..a base number +/- scale with DRNs added in.


Units:
Shuten Doji (Shinuyama). fatigue aura (how much ???)
Mandaha. fatigue aura (how much ???)
Carrion critters

Others:
Four experience stars reduce encumbrance by 1.

From DB:

509 Bane of Heresy	#1 15 ap nostr sacred only
160 Cold		#1 20 ap cold bonus wp nostr
222 Cold		#1 12 ap cold nostr
53  Debilitative Poison	#1 20 an poison nostr mres

411 Small Area Stun	#1 10 an nostr
91  Stun		¤1 0 ap
88  Unconsciousness	¤1 110 an nostr

A good example of similar reference can be found in the unit buffs guide.

Anything I missed?- Comments are welcome.

Black Halberds of MA and LA Ulm do 15 AN aoe 1 fatigue to sacred units only, which makes Guardians and Ghoul Guardians nasty anti-sacred units.

Underwater penalties for poor amphibians and units normally unable to enter seas increase encumbrance and thus fatigue.

[Omnirizon]

swamp adds +2 unless the unit has swampwalk.

heat2 and cold2 add +2, there is no penalty at heat1, nor does the penalty increase at heat3. However coldblooded units get +1 for each level of cold.

Heat from Hell adds base 5, then +1 for each level of heat, -3 if its raining.

Rigor Mortis is a BE that forces all non-undead to resist or take 10 fatigue every turn.


Curse of Stones causes fatigue (can't remember how much
Grip of Winter causes immediate fatigue... can't remember, its 4 I think
fatiguing auras... I can't remember
Shinuyama's Shuten Doji have a unique fatiguing aura (something about them playing their flutes)

[WraithLord]

Thanks guys. Updated first post with your info.

Don't forget magic scale's effect on spellcasting fatigue. And the fatigue each turn from berserk.

[Micah]

Umm, Omni, your post has a lot of inaccuracies.

Normal heat/cold penalties are only at level 3. Cold blooded is 4/7/10, not 1 per.

Rigor mortis is not resistable, but only hits half the battlefield.

Heat from hell and grip of winter also only hit 50% per turn and the rulebook says they have a base damage of 5, adjusted for scales and rain (for heat.)

I would imagine that auras are handled like heat from hell/grip of winter..a number +/- scale and then another penalty for rain for heat auras, with DRNs added in.

Being underwater also adds 1 enc.

[ano]

Mandaha has fatigue aura similar to that of Shuten-Doji.
Mage Bane deals 100 irresistible fatigue per hit (or something around that).
Also, Oal Khan's Sceptre has Area Fatigue effect but it doesn't seem too powerful.

Normal heat/cold penalties are only at level 3

And IIRC any amount of appropriate resistance negates this effect, not 50%.

Being underwater also adds 1 enc.

...and 3 enc for poor amphibians

[MaxWilson]

Most elemental spells cause fatigue damage. This is most noticeable with Thunder Strike but it also for sure happens with Fireball and Magma Eruption (the smoke after the eruption), and I assume most others.

And of course there's Sleep Cloud.

[P3D]

And Cold Resistance does NOT effect encumbrance from Cold Blooded.

[GrudgeBringer]

Rigor Mortis only covers 1/2 the battlefield?

The half the enemy is on I hope......
