> Remember that surprise attack only guarantees initiative, there is no longer a surprise round and you can only gain advantage by legitimate means such as flanking and stealth.
I think that's good because it doesn't make the enemies sitting ducks. I still don't get the order of attacks. Why can the bandits all simultaneously attack me while I can't do the same with the Bigglesworths? Or would I have needed to say that I wait for the cats to arrive and then jump out of stealth? Or would they have seen the cats and then automatically spotted me and could have attacked me first? It's clear that the current way of events is suboptimal if I attack alone and get roughed up by everyone.

 >>/7027/

The Bigglesworths didn't make it to them in round 1, Cat shot her arrow and you attacked, then the cats arrived but the bandits got a chance to attack.

So what you're saying is you only want to attack with everyone else, but once the others were running in their direction you lost your surprise. Ideally everyone would have attacked simultaneously but they were too far away and if anyone missed their stealth checks with disadvantage, you would have lost guaranteed initiative and might have taken 4 arrows to the knee and your adventuring days would be over.

Good learning opportunity, Bandits are low fodder.

Alice attacks Bandit #2 with her spear 2-handed and spends 1DP on Flurry of Blows to make 2 more unarmed strikes. As usual, as soon as #2 goes down, Alice will move on to #1.

Alice attacks Bandit #1 from stealth with her spear [A 1d20+1d4+5=(15,20)] and hits for [1d8+3=7] damage. She then continues with two more unarmed blows using 1DP [A 1d20+1d4+5= (13,24),(11,26)] landing both blows on Bandit #1 and #2 [1d6+3=(7,8)] She downs Bandit #1 and squarely hits Bandit #2 before they even know what's happening.

Yulya steadfastly refuses to take action against humans.

The remaining three Bandits, surprised but not helpless, draw their weapons, flank and attack Alice.
[A 1d20+3=(4,19)(11,5)(7,14) vs AC14] Two land blows with their short swords for [1d6+1=7,2] Alice takes 9 damage. 

Ashley calls Rally Growth
Mr. and Mrs. Bigglesworth and Helga arrive, set up flanking and attack the bandits. 
[A 1d20+1d4+4=(18,9),(17,13),(28C,16)] [1d20+1=4,19,14 vs DC14] 

Mr. Bigglesworth claws Bandit #3 and hits for [1d4+2*1.5= 4 damage]
Mrs. Bigglesworth claws Bandit #4 and hits for [1d4+1*1.5= 6 damage] the bandit passes out from the pain and is near death.

"Yay Mrs. Bigglesworth!" Ashley exclaims in excitement.

Helga claws Bandit #2 [She was not in position to pounce.] and hits for [1d4+2=4 damage]

Bandit 2 and 3 are still going strong but are surrounded.

One of the bandit uses an whistle and blows it as hard as he can, piercing the ears of the cats but they're otherwise unaffected and unfazed.

The trader stops in his tracks watching in surprise, takes out a sling and hesitates before lofting a shot toward the bandits.

[D 1d20+2=(16,19)] He hits bandit #2 for [1d4=4] The bandit is hit in the right shoulder nearly causing him to drop his weapon, but he stubbornly survives.

Helga had a critical hit and did 8 damage, not 4.

The bandit is hit in the right shoulder, and drops into the soft snow, downed by the trader's lucky shot.

Only Bandit 3 remains, he's the one who blew the whistle.

Cat moves her max distance toward the last bandit but lets the others deal with him. Shooting him might endanger Alice. She will only shoot if all others fail to down him as last resort. She calls out to the trader showing her plate

Challenge accepted.
Though I don't really know what that means nowadays. Am I a right-wing extremist? For left wing extremists I sure am. But objectively seen? The whole left-right dichotomy is completely dissolving. I'm certainly not authoritarian, I won't tell people how to live, what t believe  or what's right or wrong. I'm not a pro-Russian flat-earther antivaxx conspiracytard either. In that political spectrum diagrams I always end up exactly in the center. Guess that makes me a Nazi nowadays.
But I try to be realistic and the left isn't. The left is suicidal. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. I also learned that the hard way though nowhere even remotely Bear-tier.

Bestiemom gave me a 2025 calendar of Bestie and me at various places over the last two years or so.

So damn photogenic we look like models.

Give some stylized examples!
I will need until 2026 to make a neighborhood loli calendar but we also made a lot of cool photos together last year. Things still continue to intensify and it's not my doing. I get hugged, jumped kissed and cuddled and her mom find it adorable and urges me to spend more time with her. This drains the highly sensitive person but I do my best.
Lolis are so wholesome. Sometimes ruthless but mostly wholesome.  Much like cats.

Alice thinks it's a good way to discipline me because both my apartment and myself constantly need to be in presentable and loli-friendly shape now. I was already scolded I need to clean and tidy up more. By both. My apartment is considered extremely cozy and relaxing so both loli, mom and all the neighborhood cats want to spend time there. But it does get a bit messy when I am busy and my dishwasher is currently broken which doesn't help.

I have a bunch of short work-related travels in Jan-Feb including right now which will impede things but they should not affect D&D too much. If anything Alice sometimes might not be able to post for a day but then will do so on the next. So no need for any breaks.

I'm going to be optimistic and say I think I figured out why my truck has been fuel starved for the last 10 years. I may have adjusted the fuel pressure regulator too low. 

The symptoms have been consistent between different carburetors and even different intake manifolds.

We'll see.

I replaced my fuel pump 7 years ago because it was fuel starved and it never really fixed but the pressure has been rock solid. Only I think the gage is inaccurate and it's been wrong for the whole time.

I bought a new carburetor and it had the exact same symptom, then exgf told me it had to be something not the carburetor. So I turned up the pressure regulator and it started working better. But we will see.

Also my poor exhaust manifold flanges look like they've been overheating for 7 years... my bad.

fuck man i dreamt something horrible
the drain hose of my washing machine was clogged. i unscrewed it and tried to get the dirt out. it was a dead decomposing rat that was stuck in the hose. i spent the entire dream getting the rat corpse out in pieces. the most gross dream i can remember. posting this is bad enough i will spare you an image

Was in college, but the college was a mic of my grade school, Jr. High and high school buildings and campuses.

People I hadn't seen in 10 years there, working retail for a teacher, selling high class jeans. I went to work for him and netted $48.47 for 2 hours of just sitting around. Our job was to wear the jeans and look cool, live models. Not a single customer. I wondered how he was making money.

Then I had to collect fluid from the hairless spread vagina of a petite Vietnamese girl wearing a blue jeans dress several times to count some measure of her immunity. While her brother watched. Then she walked away saying she needed a cold shower.

> Hmm, on a flat paved road yes sure. On a gravel or muddy dirt road or even slightly uphill - not for long. Surely not all day long. Maybe some skinny but ultra-tough Vietcong fighter or a concentration camp inmate at the price of dying after a few weeks could but I still seriously doubt that. Don't underestimate friction.

[Ashley] Alice, I can summon Mechathereal Lynxes. Let's suspend disbelief a little. 5x carry capacity vs 2x max carry capacity

If it's 100 (unencumbered) x5 -> 500
If it's 300 (max) x2 -> 600

There's not much difference.

> For a human pulling a cart, a reasonable estimate would be in the range of 200 to 400 pounds (90 to 180 kg) for a short distance on a flat, paved surface.

[Bear]
The OSHA here says I can only lift 51 lbs safely and it's discounted if I'm asked to lift it regularly. Fucking weaklings.

[Joy] You don't want to keep arguing this and neither do I.

PHB pg 176
"You can push, drag, or lift a weight in pounds up to twice your carrying capacity (or 30 times your Strength score). While pushing or dragging weight in excess of your carrying capacity, your speed drops to 5 feet. Up to twice your carrying score. So you have normal movement up to your carrying capacity (15x strength)"

I have interpreted this as: default for Cat would be 540 lbs 18x30 dragging a load When you add wheels, it's much easier.

I am allowing cat to pull a maximum of 1128lbs total (twice her carry capacity) while on a 4 wheeled cart. This includes (and would need to be subtracted) the weight of the cart and her equipment whether worn or not. I'll let Bear school you on horsepower and geometry.

[Bear] Believe it or not, a person has about 1.2 horsepower, an athlete has 2.5 horsepower. A horse has 15 horsepower.

[Bear] So let's assume we're all athletes in the game a draft horse can pull 8000 lbs reliably over long distances in a cart (15 HP even less over long distances but this is conservative for this calculation) if a person like cat has 2.5 HP that's 1,333 lbs. Joy is suggesting 1128, it's not unreasonable.

[Ashley] Yeah! Stop complaining if you can't do the maths and don't ask AI anything, it's trained on internet morons.

Naturally I want the death of 99.9% of all humans, so I'm trying to manifest WW3 and I'm making solid ground. So I say, "I'm trying to manifest WW3."

It wasn't a popular statement. You know who liked it? EXGF, she was like "YEAH!"

Aaaand another muslim terror attack on a German Christmas Market, this time in the city of Magdeburg.
It was an elderly Saudi psychiatrist doctor and apparently a conspiracy schizo rather than a jihadist. Still plowed through people with his car like a good islamist. At least 2 dead, up to 60 injured. And this after those markets are heavily guarded by police, fenced off and protected by concrete barriers against exactly those car attacks which happen regularly.
I don't feel sorry. People cheered for the arriving 'refugees' 10 years ago. This is what they deserve for promoting Diversity
