Wow, impressive. Well done.
Edit:
Further to your horse testing, what I did from your results was find the average carrying weight per horse; being 38.9kg. In theory, for every 38.9kg’s you need one horse to offset the inventory weight (food/trade items only).
I did this by dividing the each tests weight by its ideal (highest speed) pack horse number to ascertain how much weight each horse carried. I then added up the individual carry weights for the six tests (233.38kg’s) and divided this by the number of tests completed (6) to obtain the average.
Actually, this is not very accurate at all. Using the 38.9kg theory, you need 3.86 horses to carry 150kgs and 7.71 horses to carry 300kgs. Both these weights ideal pack horse number is 5. I noticed with 13 horses sharing 1,000kg, each horse carry’s 76.92kgs… that’s nearly twice the average amount and half the required horses.
OK, ignore me.
