 Encumbrance and movement will be handled in a simple, direct manner:   A character has 3 possible states of encumbrance and movement:
-  - **NORMAL**:  character is not wearing chain mail or plate armor and is carrying a number of items equal to or less than his STR ability score.  For a horse, this rate applies if it has no or an unarmored rider.
+  - **NORMAL**:  character is not wearing chain mail or plate armor and is carrying a number of items equal to or less than his STR ability score.
-  - **ARMORED OR LOADED**: a character is either wearing chain or plate OR is carrying more items than his STR ability score, but less than twice his score.  For a horse this applies if it has an armored rider.
+  - **ARMORED OR LOADED**: a character is either wearing chain or plate OR is carrying more items than his STR ability score, but less than twice his score.
-  - **ARMORED AND LOADED**: a character is wearing chain or plate armor AND is carrying more than his STR score in items, but less than twice his score.  He counts at this level if he is carrying a body, or a chest or other bulky container, regardless of his armor and equipment.  For a horse, this applies if it has barding and/or 2 riders.
+  - **ENCUMBERED**: a character is wearing chain or plate armor AND is carrying more than his STR score in items, but less than twice his score.  He counts at this level if he is carrying a body, spellbook or a chest or other bulky container, regardless of his armor and equipment.

 He can carry 10 items without becoming loaded, so far he as 9 of them.  We can assume he’s wearing normal clothes, wearing a backpack, and has a sword belt and scabbards.  He is in leather armor, so now he is Normal, so 6”--30’ of movement.  If he should get more than 300 more coins, he would tip over into the 10th item, and if he should pick up one more item, he would become “loaded”.  Then, he would drop to 5”--25’ of movement.
