The Infernal Goat
Farmer Derek has carelessly poured gasoline on his goat while refueling his tractor. Pleased with a job well done, Derek pulls out a cigarette and tosses the match over his shoulder onto the unsuspecting animal. Panicking, the flaming beast heads for a lake which is 5 miles due north of the barn. The barn is 12 miles due west of the goat. The goat runs at 25 miles per hour, but 2/3 of the way there, he falls into a ditch and breaks his leg, so his speed is reduced to 6 miles per hour, however, 1/4 the flames have been extinguished by water in the ditch. The goat can survive for one hour in complete flame. Assuming 1D6 Damage per round from fire;
Does the goat survive?
About how many hit points does the goat have, and if not enough, how many would it need to guaranteed survival?
edit: It's supposed to be 1/4 of the flames extinguished.
