Priam, having taken his sweet time and waited until the others showed up before doing anything, finally stood and sauntered over to the table where the other three were.

"The woman's got a point. Who the fuck's gonna fall for that? What's gonna happen is, you'll try to go in through the front like that then get surrounded and cut down quicker than y'can say 'I'm an idiot.' Which is somethin' I get the feeling ya don't say to yerself near well enough."
"Nah, here's how ya handle this shit if ya got half a brain in your head," he continued, sliding into the seat next to Tangle then placing his feet on yet another table. The glares from the barmaids intensified by an order of magnitude. "There's no way y'can take on that many guards in a straight-up fight, I don't care what kinda badass ya think ya are. This is a lord we're talkin' here, not the mayor of some backwater in the sticks. He's got fortifications. He's got soldiers that have actual armor and actual training. He might even have a ballista for all y'know."
He tossed the fishbone into the air. It proceeded to land in someone's drink. "What ya do is, ya set a charge on one side of their castle and set it off. Then while they're all scramblin' around tryin' to figure out what the hell's goin' on, y'go 'round to the side, take a grappling hook and climb up. Go in, hit hard, hit fast, get out. 'Cuz yer a guerilla force, not a fuckin' army."
