Military action

We assaulted what we thought was a barracks, it was a brewery. We took a few things then rigged the whole building to explode with fuses and timers about the time we get to the western side of camp to draw everyone's attention over to the east allowing us to slip in undetected.

From the outside, this wooden structure appears to be a barracks, or warehouse, its pitched roof rushing forty feet above the ground. the oversized double doors in the north and south walls are sized for giants, as is an exterior flight of stairs that runs along the north side of the building.   We breach though the double doors and discover it is a brewery! A single vast chamber occupied most of the chamber with flickering torchs set 10' off the ground along the walls. tiled stone covered the foor. in the center of the main room sat four huge cats, each ten feet tall and chained to a wooden catwalk constructed above them. Along the west wall, a flight of steps ascended to the catwalk, with a single roof support rising from the center. A smaller room was evident in the northwester corner of the building, built up on a raised partial second floor. a strange contraption fashioned from a bass kettle bristling with a series of curling metal tubes sat upon the floor to the south near the stairs. The heady scent of fermenting grain hangs heavy in the air, barrels and kegs littered the floor.   .Inside we face the brewmaster and his two apprentices, i do not recall home many.. i did only take three beards so perhaps if there was more, the forth was a woman or i simply forgot to gather his beard. The brewmaster was an ice witch, using foul hexes upon us trying to infect us with the plague and strange pustules even a vomit swarm. between all of us we made short work of the guards. the brewmaster was slain trying to flee out the eastern double doors but died with an axe to the back, volley of arrows and a couple of bullets to make sure then was dragged back inside.   After the battle was finished we we upstairs to search the smaller room and others set about to rig the room to explode in a few hours time.   Searching upstairs and upon the giants bodies we found a bunch of things, including in the next log entry.
