Fatigue actually has a dramatic negative effect on everything that requires a roll to succeed, most notably your THAC0 rolls. It's like a reverted Luck effect. Getting fatigued multiple times (using Haste 3+ times per day or not resting for a very long time) will make it very hard for you to hit anything that your character would normally have at least some chance of missing.

Of course, with subzero THAC0 vs monsters with average AC, you wont notice the effects of Fatigue until you stack 4-5 of them.
