And slowly gaining on them. They throw alchemist's fire, they try an ambush, but there's too many of the bad guys and they're running like mad.I check for an obstacle and what do you know? This round our heroes are about to run into something not so helpful.When one of my players lays down her <a href="http://barsoom.hyboria.net/Swash.html" target="_blank">Swashbuckling Card</a> that says, "Instant Dislike: Two groups of NPCs develop an immediate hostility towards each other." The obstacle turns out to be a Creature.So our heroes go tearing around a low hill and charge smack into the middle of a pride of Tyrannosaurus Rexes! They're past and gone by the time the huge predators realise what's going on, but then the wave of raptor-riding savages hits them.And then chaos obviously ensues.Thus proving the truth of the maxim: Everything is improved with the sudden introduction of a rampaging dinosaur. Or three.</blockquote>
