rom90125 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Can anyone recommend a Keeper resource that would have a set of tables for random hazards that could be used during a chase? I know there are sample hazards on page 136 of the Keeper Rulebook, but I am looking for a more comprehensive set of tables. I imagine I could start said tables here and ask others to contribute entries for both Car Chases and Foot Chases. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darius West Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 You probably want different tables for different terrain settings. Such as Urban, Small City, Town, Rural, Forest, Desert/Prairie, Mountain, etc. Possibly also Air travel hazards and sea/lake/river hazards for water travel. In the 1920s horseshoe nails would be a big puncture hazard on most roads, as was mud. Covered freeways were far from widespread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Hi Rom90125 As yet, no such comprehensive tables exist. The chase rules are designed to be pertinent to the situation and somehwat fluid, allowing for Sudden Hazards (see page 139) and so on - and allowing Keepers to quickly detemrine a series of hazards/locations/barriers appropriate to the scene's setting (the Keeper just has a quick think about the location and notes down the pertinent stuff). If required, in advance of play, the Keeper can think it through and note down the locations and barriers etc ready for play. In most situations, barriers and hazards are doors, walls, crowds, windows, and so on. The lists in the Rulebook hopefully give you what you need or act as inspiration. Trying to catelogue all the possible barriers and hazards out of context may be a never ending job! But if like-minded folk want to build up some lists on this forum, then I'm sure folk will appreciate it. You might start with 1920s and Modern as headers, and sub-divide from there (village, town, big city) (inside - a house, hotel, univeristy) (outside - road, street, market, countryside) and so on - the list get ever bigger! Hence, why I would say some lists of inpiration might be better - allowing poeple to pull from them and adapt as they need - rather than trying to be comprehensive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
