Can we get a description of the mech? Is there a cockpit with a windshield for the pilot, or is it more like a suit of armor? How big is it? Any visible self destruct buttons?

Did Luther start the round with his action, so is it our turn?

All we can hope to do is slow it down long enough to get into position to extract the shards from Luther.  Unfortunately, I can offer little in the way of resistance against such a device, but perhaps the spellcasters can create walls or summon powerful creatures to aid in subduing it. 

And I agree with Kerkly and Benlin.  If someone can send Asinjin, he may be able to Greater Teleport in and equip us with the scarab.

I might be able to climb in it and try to pull him out other than that there is not much I can do against this.  I guess it will all depend on what it looks like.

The golem is 12’ tall and has an axe in its left hand and a three barrel canon for a right hand and forearm. It has triangular treads rather than feet. It’s head is a death’s head. (100xp to anyone that correctly names the toy from our childhood that serves as its direct inspiration).

Luther is fully encased in the armor but based on the proportions he is likely in its chest. It appears to be made of steel.

He has made a move action.

The building is a classic style factory. It is 400’ long and 250’ wide and 60’ tall. It has a 3rd level catwalk that goes around the entire perimeter. The second level catwalk is broken by great double doors at on the west end. The floor is mostly dirt with the heavy wood planning torn up over three quarters of the floor. The southeast quarter of the building is full of scraped clickers and machinery of various types.

Does this mean he has other actions that he will take before we act?

Sh'Aar shrugs.  " Said I was not sure I could hurt it, didn't mean I wouldn't try "

It’s just apparent that all he’s done is move.

And Ari is also useless unless this happens to be an evil construct. Maybe I could use my corpse to jam the treads.

Somewhere a dwarf says “Write this down: don’t leave the golembane weapons at home if you’re headed to the Plateau looking for trouble. On second thought, never leave the golembane weapons at home.”

Just in case I’m late, Ari’s strategy is to jump off the catwalk and sit peacefully in from of the mechanical horror of death.

EDIT: Ari first hands off the time gem to Navi before he leaps. If negotiations break down further (Ari gets squished) she can pass through the mech armor incorporeally and active the gem on Luther.
