up to 19.5 kilograms: unaffected - move 24 meters per round
20 to 39 kilograms: loaded - Dodge, Climb, Jump, Swim, and some other movement-related skills are halved; move is 18 meters per round.
40 to 77 kilograms: burdened - Dodge, Climb, Jump, Sneak, Throw, all melee attacks, all parries, and some others are halved; some skills may not be possible: Swim without flotation aids, for example; move is 12 meters per round.

Carrying her issued field gear and role kit is a load of 33 kilograms (loaded). That gas mask is a real lump o' weight ... if only your friends weren't so likely to heave tear gas about! The load with issued field gear, role kit, and survival gear is 44.24 kilograms (burdened). If Paula leaves the sleeping bag, spare coverall, and bayonet behind, she will be in the loaded encumbrance level.
