how fast is the unit traveling in relative km/h when making accelerated skiis
like 300kph ?

speed in legions is measured in m/s
so to be going at 300km/h in legions you would need to be going at:

300*1000 (conversion to metres/h)

30,000/3600 (convertion to metres/s)

(or 300 * 0.277777778)

= 83.33333334 m/s

in other words, you would be travelling almost as fast as a formula one racer before you would be able to activate overdrive.

This is really quite terrifying when you hit speeds like 250 m/s.

On the bright side, the scale of the game is so buggered that the arbitrary assignment of m/s doesn't really matter.

Fair enough, but americans don't think in terms of f/s.
820.21 f/s*(1 mi / 5280ft)*(60s / 1 min)*(60 min / 1 hr) = 559.23 mph. Any redneck could tell you that is really fast. I could use a Legionnaire suit for my trip to and from college. I've got mountains the whole way so skiing would be piece of cake.

It's really just this. Speed doesn't matter because the scaling of the game is arbitrary.

On the subject of the speed however...

So..Marty McFly was going too slow?
