Didn't Matilda walk on air entering this place? How often to goblins look up...

K.I.S.S principle here, theres enough goblins in the room that at any given point SOME of them are likely to be looking upward, and Take No Heed doesn't work when you're doing something visibly not possible for your guise.
 
[X] Plan Murderbeast Distraction
-[X] Sabotage the defences...
-- [X] By unleashing whatever is under this floor upon the greenskins above it.
-[X] Slip out...
-- [X] By walking out while they're otherwise distracted. (note: ensure your plan includes an otherwise distraction)

Mathilde does not need micromanaging, and the core of this is pretty solid. Everything else has some issues, complicated, or complicated and has issues.

[X] Plan Come and Get Me
-[X] Skywalk over the trapped floor and use Move to trigger the goblin siege weapons.
--[X] Lure the goblins over their own trapped floor.

Sure, this is a stupid plan, but it's my stupid plan.

pretty sure those are trolls down there. but it could be something else. Either way, them going on a rampage is likely to take out the balastie and a good chunk of the goblins in the gatehouse.

Been a while since we've taken a horribly over the top risk. Also I liked that mining metaphor.

Fire is fun, but too troublesome.

No reason to not unleash more destruction on our way out, it's a very simple spell, and the set up is just to good to pass up. We can kill dozens to hundreds of gobbos like this.
