[QUOTE="BSF, post: 2092344, member: 13098"] It's a good PDF and I finally playtested it last night. One thing I have noticed here though: you really want to only have one chase leader. Either the good guys are pursuing one "vehicle" or the PCs are all in one "vehicle" and the bad guys are pursuing them. I tried to run a chase with multiple PC "vehicles" being pursued by multiple bad guy "vehicles". It doesn't work as well. Mind you, I don't think this is really a weakness in the rules, you can do it any way you like. but if you want to keep the element of the chase quick, and tension filled, you want to keep the dynamics fairly simple. 8 riders on horseback being chased by 20 worgs with riders is too many variables to keep the pace screaming forward. If I were going to do it again, I would probably group the PC's together, use the slowest speed factor (mixed light coursers and heavy destriers) and probably the highest ride check. Then apply penalalties to the group based on individual actions. That would have kept things flowing quickly. I do look forward to using Hot Pursuit again with lessons learned. :) [/QUOTE]
