Fast, Cinematic Car Chases (part 2)


In terrestrial vehicular combat, in most cases someone will be fleeing and someone else will be pursuing. If you are pursuing, your goal is to catch up to your target and to stop him, which is usually done by shooting up his vehicle enough to disable it. Of course, the target of a pursuit (we call him the prey) wants to get as far away from his pursuers (the predators) as fast as possible, using piloting maneuvers to escape the engagement altogether or by using weapons to damage his pursuers enough that they can't keep up. By staying at long distance for several rounds, in most scenarios the prey will be able to escape. If the predators can stay with him throughout the car chase, however, the prey will reach his destination and squad combat will resume as he exits his vehicle.
