Chases, Vehicles, Drones and Riggers

CHASES

Chases are special sort of fight scene. Chases have their own stress track. A full stress track indicates
that the pursuer has caught up to the chaser. An empty stress track indicates that the pursued has
escaped from the pursuer. The length of the stress track and starting position are based on the situation
at GM discretion. This also works for foot chases.

Tests: During a chase scene opponents take turns making rolls to move the stress track. The outcome of
your roll determines what happens.

• Fail: Your opponent chooses to either create a boost against you or move the stress track one
check in their direction
• Tie: You may move the stress track one check in your direction but if you do your opponent
gains a boost against you
• Success: Move the stress track one check in your direction
• Success with Style: Move the stress track two checks in your direction or one check and gain a
boost against your opponent.

Tests can be any skill that makes sense in the situation. However, during any chase scene a participant
may not use any skill to move the stress track twice in a row, with the exceptions being athletics (in the
case of a foot race) or pilot (in the case of vehicle chases). Participants must describe how they're
using each skill to close or make distance. Additionally participants may make rolls that don't move
the stress track (the most obvious being shoot rolls). Shoot rolls take a -1 for every 2 unfilled spaces on
the stress track.

VEHICLES

All vehicles and drones have a name, an aspect, a speed, body and armor. Vehicles also have a capacity
rating while drones also have a stealth rating.

Speed ratings add to pilot tests during chase scenes. Body determines stress and consequences based
on the table below and also determines how many modifications the vehicle or drone can fit, Capacity
is how many people the vehicle can seat. Trolls and Drones with Body at 4 or above take two seats.
Drones with Body 2 or below take no seats. Armor subtracts from any damage taken to vehicle or
occupants within.

Body Stress Consequences

0 0 none
1 2 none
2 2 -2
3 3 -2/-2
4 3 -2/-4
5 4 -2/-4/-6
 6 4 -2/-2/-4/-6

Ramming: When one player makes a pilot roll to ram another both vehicles take the damage, but the
difference in their Body rating is subtracted from the larger's damage and added to the smaller's
damage. Armor also applies.

Pilot Programs: All drones and vehicles come with pilot programs. By default they can act
autonomously as if they have a single skill at rank 2 that does everything they should reasonably be
able to do (drive, ram, shoot, avoid damage, navigate etc...).

RIGGERS

Riggers are capable of “jumping in” to drones and vehicles. In this way they become the machine and
control it as if it were their own body.
In order to be a Rigger you need the following:
• A high concept that reflects your nature as a rigger gearhead
• Skill ranks in Pilot and Gunnery (if you want to fire weapons while jumped in)
• The Stunt “Rigger Control Rig” which allows you to jump into a vehicle or drone and control it
using your own skills. This allows you to use Cold-Sim and Hot-Sim as a hacker would except
the +1 from Hot-Sim also applies to Pilot rolls. This also leaves you vulnerable to biofeedback
damage from hacking attempts. Additionally you suffer dumpshock if a vehicle you are jumped
into is destroyed.
• The Control Rig augmentation.
