[QUOTE="NotAYakk, post: 8507529, member: 72555"] You'll note that in combat, Dash is a fixed amount of extra speed. Who outruns who is a matter of whose speed is higher. In the chase rules, people make athletics checks to close distances/generate distances. So we can add a rule to make it more continuous: [b]Run Action[/b]: You can only Run if you took the Dash or Run Action last turn. The Run action increases your movement speed like the Dash action, but you can also attempt to push further. Make a Strength(Athletics) check and add that many feet to your movement speed. Repeated running or dashing can cause fatigue or exhaustion. So now, you "start" a chase by dashing out of combat. The next turn they start running, and unless you move much faster than them they'll start to open up the distance. This folds the Strength(Athletics) check into initiative-based movement without disrupting standard combat by adding it. [/QUOTE]
