1d100 Dex 55

(50%) 1d100

Kris moved with all the grace and elan of a man with sudden-onset arthritis…

Can I get right back in the car and drive after him? The motor is still running.

Do we have another officer here?

There's another AFO outside, but not with Jocelyn and Simon.
Jocelyn absolutely can get back in the car and chase him, that'll be a Drive roll.

Drive Auto roll (50% skill) to chase the man:
d%

Looks to me like we've got ourselves a chase. I'm not 100% sure I understand the 7th Edition chase rules but let's give it a go. 'Johnny' has MOV 8 and DEX 65 so he's pretty fast. Kris has MOV 7 DEX 50, Jocelyn MOV 8 DEX 65, Simon MOV 8 DEX 55. So we act in the order: 'Johnny', Jocelyn, Simon, Kris. Everyone gets 2 MOVE ACTIONS except Kris, who gets one, slow coach. You can use a MOVE ACTION to run closer to Johnny, to attack him if you've caught up, or to buy 1 or 2 bonus die for a HAZARD ROLL.

Initially the positions were:
Johnny...(h)Jocelyn...x...Simon...x...Kris

And here on a map:



So Kris was 5 away from Johnny, while Jocelyn was only 1 away from Johnny. However, Jocelyn has a hazard between her and Johnny - that is the car, if she's not going to try and knock him down with the car (that'd be a DRIVE ROLL) then she'll need to get out the car and chase after him - to do that successfully she needs to pass a DEX roll. For everyone else, I'm going to say the car is blocking the road and also counts as a hazard, they'll also need a DEX roll to get past. If you fail the DEX roll (or any other HAZARD CHECK) then it'll cost you 1d3 MOVE ACTIONS (you can take actions from your next turn) and you might take damage.

If Jocelyn continued to drive the car then each MOVE ACTION she uses can move 1-5 locations. But again, unless she runs Johnny over she'll need to get out the car to apprehend him and pass that DEX roll.

So to start with I'd like everyone to roll CON (even Jocelyn - but she'll only get the benefit/cost if she gets out of the car). If you get an extreme success then +1 to your MOV rating. A failure and it's -1.

So I've rolled CON for Johnny - he fails despite an impressive 75%, so his MOV drops to 7 - and now he only has 1 MOVE ACTION.

He uses his MOVE ACTION to go one further location. So now the relative positions are:
Johnny...x...(h)Jocelyn...x...Simon...x...Kris

And here on a map:



Since he's gone into an alley Jocelyn can't follow in the car so she'll need to get out to chase him any further.

So feel free to tell me what you do with your MOVE ACTIONS if you're chasing Johnny. If you decide to do something else, e.g. going to a different location to try and cut him off, then let me know and I'll tell you how many MOVE ACTIONS it takes and any hazards you face.

(70%) 1d100

So no change to Kris's MOV - which means he gets 1 MOVE ACTION. He using it to get 1 location nearer to Johnny?

I asked for nonlethal weapons earlier, before we came out here. What do I have available?

The armed officers will have Tasers, Kris will have a telescopic truncheon and pepper spray. If you roll Luck and pass then you can choose if there is either pepper spray or a truncheon in the vehicle. Pepper spray is fired with the handgun skill. The range is short so you'd need to be at the same location as him.

Luck roll (45% stat) to choose a weapon:
d%
I'll use my two move actions to catch up to him, but I'm guessing I don't get to attack this turn.

Yes, Kris is trying to catch up with Johnny, unless he can think of a way to cut him off.
