PILOT SKILL: COMBAT DRIVING
This skill supplements other driving skills by helping to make the
character a master of the roads when driving automobiles, jeeps,
trucks, motorcycles, and other ground vehicles. It helps to turn the
character into an aggressive road-hog and cool-headed 'chicken' player.
In fact, tricks, dangerous manoeuvres, and high-speed car chases are
challenging and fun for this daredevil, although any passengers are
likely to fear for their lives.
In game mechanics, skill penalties for tricks, vehicular attacks (ram,
sideswipe etc.), and evasive manoeuvres are reduced by half when this
character is at the wheel, plus they gain the bonuses below.
This is a supplemental piloting skill applicable only to ground
vehicles and does not have a base skill or level of experience
progression.
