Only thing we all agree is that it's good to take the Increase Fortitude skill early.

Is there not general agreement on the Combat Speed skill early as well, or do some people think it's not worth it?

It really depends on what weapon type you are using. Or in other words, what is your attack AP? A 6 AP weapon with one of the necklaces and you don't need combat speed.

Good point. Still, you might need to hit and run sometimes even if it's not your normal fighting style, and for that in your scenario you'd need either one level of Combat Speed or an item that reduces your movement cost, like

the feline boots or villain's armour

With a 6ap attack cost in getting your combat speed to two and using the necklace generates a waste of two AP points every round which becomes very very annoying cuz you have to hit "end round" every time. I wouldn't recommend doing it for this reason

You don't have to tap "End round" unless there's something else your character is capable of doing with only 1 or 2 AP; otherwise, the game is smart enough to end the round automatically (unless I'm misremembering). And you'd need only one level of Combat Speed to hit and run with a 6 AP weapon and appropriate amulet, not 2.
