-[X] To the Temple of Grungni, to check if the holy place remains undesecrated.

We're here to scout and have time to scout a limited amount of things to be back in time to inform the army.
An army of dwarves.
So lets scout what they want to know.

Edit: Fixed error. Thx @Mopman43

Two more things. This is the first place we've scouted, we have 3 total.

Sorry for doubleposting, not sure what I did.

Its too bad that we didnt requisition bombs... maybe next time we'll tell Belegar that we'll act as a sabotuer instead of just as a scout.

I'm not sure I like the assassinate-as-a-Skaven plan. Someone mentioned Take No Heed potentially failing because a Skaven that's not with the guy on the platform is suspicious. That seems plausible to me. I've forgotten what exactly my other objections were.

My preferred option would be toppling the platform to take out both of them and just cause some general chaos. Sneaking up and cutting through some important-looking ropes should be enough considering how flimsy it's described as being.

[X] Under cover of Doppelganger and Take No Heed, sabotage the platform so that it falls into the orc pit.

I also quite like a more brazen approach. Hangwind thinks these guys are more like merchants rather than warleaders, so they should be fairly vulnerable to a straight up attack.

[X] Skywalk-charge the Skaven and goblins on the platform and break them with Dread Aspect.
 
A risky assassination seems a bit much. We're here for information, there'll be opportunities for assassinations later.

We're already hidden. We can take the shot from where we are. We just look like a Skaven for the shot.

As the update itself states, there won't be any delay if we manage to get away without problems.

If the plan was just to assassinate then I'd think we could potentially get out without a delay, but the current plan is all about being seen doing the Assassination disguised as a Skaven so that we can cause a fight. That almost certainly will delay things a bit.

Now that I'm thinking about it, is there any point to looking like a skaven? Successfully assassinating the goblin from afar is going to cause plenty of chaos already. I'm not sure the goblins would even pay attention to Mathilde after the fact when they're busy panicking about the fact that their leader's head just exploded.

I guess it might be useful if Mathilde fails, but the goblin leader's probably already going to think the skaven had something to do with it.

Probably no point, no. Not if we also want to get away without delay.

It means they think the Skaven (that are in the same room) are to blame. As far as I can tell, there's no extra risk involved, and it could definitely pay off.

Besides, if we look like a Skaven, then they aren't looking for a human wizard.
