Chapter 4: Subsystems / Infiltration / Building an Infiltration / Obstacles

Sample Obstacles

Source GM Core pg. 197
While you'll want to create custom obstacles to suit the details of your infiltration, the following examples can be used directly in many infiltrations, or as inspiration for your own creations. You can also use the sample chase obstacles on page 195 as starting points.
