So: murder them all?

Muffle their mouths, slit their throats. Nice and quiet, minimum of fuss.

On of our resident sneaky people kills the chef so he can't discover the bodies. The corpses are looted and stacked in a room to make it look like a violent looting break in.

We find the perp, bash him up, either interrogate him there or carry him off. We take what we can carry, and set a fire on our way out.

Simple, effective, fun.

Bother, I didn't see this plan or I might have voted for it. Is it too late?

[GiglameshDespair]

On an unrelated note, I want to use some clockwork or otherwise mechanical monsters in a mini-campaign I'm going to be running in real life. Can any of you point me to any with a fairly low CR (Somewhere in the range of 2-4)?

I can't think of any. You could maybe use or modify the Pathfinder Clockwork creature template and have some clockwork wolves or something.

[Dwarmin]

Well, that is a nice idea, but let's save the murder for later...there will probably be a Rube Goldberg type situation where the waking servants wake up the sleeping guards who wake up the sleeping monsters...

Osirio added a bit of salt to the casserole and stirred it a bit.

"...Hmm, needs nutmeg...do you have nutmeg?" He asked the unconscious chef.

Damnit, Dwarmin!
Which character's supposed to be a cook again!

Where do you think he learned such an appreciation of fine food?

[flame99]

Did I mention this thing is powerful? Because this thing is powerful. And no, you aren't necessarily intended to kill it, though it is possible.

EDIT: Also, stopping the turn to confirm that Lawas still wants to hit it.

[lawastooshort]

Urg, I see. Does Osirio need healing? He looks a bit like he does from here.

[Harbingerjm]

a machine has a thousand moving parts, after all, and only one needs to fail...

For absolutely nothing to happen. Lousy constructs and their precision damage immunity >.>

[Nerjin]

Hm... So if we're supposed to run from this fight [as has been hinted] we have two options. Out or further in. We either give up on this mission because there's a hunk of metal in the way or... We run deeper into unknown territory into more clockwork guardians because "Fuck you players!"

Obviously we can't do the latter because it will chase us. We can't do the former because it's our only lead. We gotta fight. Yay! I'll get to rolling up new characters.

[lawastooshort]

Couldn't we run to some stairs? They can't go up stairs, right?

[Nerjin]

They'll just be another. If not we'll have to come down eventually.

Oh great, we're fighting Space Marines.

[Nerjin]

Is that canon? Please tell me it is.

We could climb out the windows?

If that's not acceptable then I think the only solution (other than standing and fighting) is my original plan, which was to burn the building to the ground and slay all who come out (except for Ari, who'll be busy getting away from the crime scene).


Also, please advise: should I start Bardic Song and Healing on Osirio, smack the construct, or flee?

Because I really want to Chant and Heal and probably will quite soon. Or flee.
