Rick has absolutely no clue where to begin trying to hurt this thing. He tries going for the underside of one of its legs, but still hits plate with no effect. The frog doesn't seem to react as he quickly disengages to return to the back of the room.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.

Khond charges the machine, looking to jab his rapier into a joint. (Can't see the map, so confined space as it is, I'm assuming he wouldn't be able to get a 30' run-up to trigger his centaur Charge?)

Khond has just enough room to get in his charge, striking the beast head on, but while he definitely connects fails to see anything that his strike might have done. Asimi joins in, banging with her halberd, but finds her weapon bouncing off just as well.
"Whatever this damned armor is, I think our weapons can't pierce it?! Do we have something stronger?"
The 'frog' meanwhile, starts to move. There are heavy thuds as its front legs shift, head raising as it lifts itself up... Even if its hind legs remain stuck on the ground. There's a multitude of strange, alien, clinking sounds from within.
[Internals .... OK] [Shielding .... OK]
One by one, there's a hiss of steam as the front legs move. [Mobility .... Rear legs disabled]
The massive, cannon-like thing upon its back shifts, only just managing to lower enough to get a bead on those at the back of the room.
[Weapon system .... OK]
Whatever it's doing, it seems like it's going to finish very soon.

(let me get a new image up again soon. It seems like discord images expire after a while now. I could also open the discord channel I have for it?
But the short version is the "frog" takes up the entire back half of the room. Maybe halfling dexterity could have you squeeze in there, but it'd be rather cramped. You're currently at the back of the room and there is 30 feet before you're right in front of it.)
Realizing that he has nowhere to run, and a weapon that can't harm this construct, Breldo heaves a mighty sigh. "Have I mentioned how much I hate this place? You suck, you metal frog thing!"
Breldo will stand in front of the door and hope to dodge the attack and let it blow the door open.

Rick will, seeing the thing looking at him mean like, will run at it then go left to the wall and climb up the wall and move around it to be on the ceiling above it.
He will then open his hooded lantern and begin pouring lamp oil on its front bits.
"Rick would ask that someone light the lamp oil."
He will then move behind its bum legs on the wall.

Rick blinks.
"Or no?"
Initiative: 15
Rick tries to do a quick backtrack of what he said, but the mask no longer responds, and the door stays shut.
(Everyone gets at least one action before the metal frog can act, so feel free to post your first action alongside initiative if you wish.)

Rick would like to take his dagger and shove it into something structurally important looking and then run back behind everyone else.
((Rolls? He is disengaging as his rogue action so no AoO.))
((Just a standard attack roll I would say then. Free action for an arcana check to identify any weak points? ))
Arcana: 3

Breldo aims down, getting a beautiful shot right down its eye! The arrow strikes, and-
Bounces off, seeming entirely unhurt.

"Oh, that's bull crap!", Breldo exclaims.
((Image isn't displaying for me on last page. Are there any obvious controls on the frog thing or the wall nearby?))

Rick nods,
"Entire place is a scam thinks Rick."
He says in agreement .

Breldo is sadly as clueless about what the hell this thing is, or how it's even possible. It has to be just a very intricate puppet display, right?!

Breldo will run into the room, not liking the look of the weapon training on them, and will stick near a wall, dodging.
((How far was he from it? Can he get behind the disabled back legs?))
