How about this:

Catch Me If You Can
Action Modifier
Only usable by a minion with a vehicle
Only usable when a minion attempts to block. The attempt fails (do not tap that blocking minion). That minion cannot attempt to block this action again.

Be careful when you fight the monsters, lest you become one.

Getaway Car
Action Modifier
Only usable by a minion with a vehicle. Usable after a successful action.
If this action is not blocked, tap this vehicle and put it out of play until the end of your turn to untap the acting vampire.

That should do it.

"Block attempt fails" is quite a powerful effect, even where you need to have a vehicle to use it - several vehicles are fairly decent, and a few of the more marginal cards might come into play. You could see an intercept grinder including a couple of Sport Bikes and 4 of these to force the occasional bleed through, maybe.

A blood cost might be a little too harsh, but in its current form, I'd be tempted to put a "Do Not Replace until..." clause on it. Some point after the end of the minion phase, most likely - do not replace until the end of the current turn, maybe.

Pretty decent, though I would be mildly interested in seeing how it playtested if someone was trying to stack it with Helicopter (with or without Alastor). Probably not game-breaking given they might just be stacking a ton of Freak Drive, but could be interesting to watch.

Curiously, a vampire playing Force of Will could drag themselves into a Getaway Car while entering torpor. Probably not a concern.

I like the idea of helping vehicles.

How about:
Burn a vehicle on this minion to give minions without celerity -1 intercept against this action.

The idea being you drive around the slow people.


Seems awfully expensive for what amounts to +1 stealth. Perhaps:

Defensive Driving
:modifier:
Only usable by a minion with a vehicle.

Minions without Celerity :cel: get -1 intercept.
