Yeah, Danny was right, but for the wrong reason.  As I'm sure Joel saw, rule
7.5.2.10.2.2.4 says that "any result modified to less than a class 1 pursuit
means that no pursuit takes place".  So the forest modifier was a column
shift to the right, not a die roll modifier as Danny thought, but it
resulted in no pursuit in any case.
