Chase
Scenario
A Chase Scenario happens when the players need to pursue an escaping target, whether it’s a cryture fleeing into the woods, a hostage running from captivity, or a criminal on the run from justice.
Chase turns are in Tactical Time. To win the chase, a player must close the Distance between themselves and the target with their actions while the target tries to increase the Distance.
​
Rules
Participants in the Chase begin by rolling Initiative to determine turn order. The target begins with a number of spaces of Distance equal to its Speed. Each player’s Distance is tracked separately, and each point of Distance is equivalent to 5 feet, or 1 space on a tactical map.
Once the target is within range, players may use the Tackle action to stop the target from fleeing. They may also use attacks to subdue the target.
