costs fatigue when performed for a long time. Assume the fatigue cost is
the same as that incurred from battle. If you are doing them during
battle, the fatigue cost is covered from the battle. but if you're a
cleric jumping around and waving your are about during ceremonial magic,
this may take a long time. For the first minute, incur fatigue from
combat fatigue table (pB134). and roll vs HT every full minute thereafter.
A failed roll incurs another block of fatigue (from the same table). If
you are also shouting, the HT roll is at -3.
