Which greek gods could survive being attacked by a millions of incredibly powerful fire robots?Importantly which gods are easy to kill but cause extra chaos if killed.The fire robots are specifically designed to fight gods so they got radiance resistance,anti-magic,immunity ignoring attacks,polymorph protection and similar anti-god tools.
That pretty much was what I thought with most of them,though I have to tell you that this whole hypothetical occured because Hephaestus decided to take over the world.If anyone wonders why they tend to say "because I was done just using my creations as small scale tools for others,Done I tell you"
immunity ignoring attacks. apollo would be dead too

This Mug immediately shared with me a transcendental tale of an Infinite Mug that anchors the Universe and keeps it from folding in on itself. I filed this report under "illogical nonsense" and asked why its sign is in Times New Roman font, when it is basic knowledge that Arial Black is a far superior font. I wondered: How did this mug even get past the assembly line with its theistic beliefs and poor font choices?

Even for being crafted by the god of the forge, those robots seem a bit OP, particularly the immunity ignoring attacks. Especially if he has an actual army of them. Assuming you're looking to set him up as the villain for a campaign, an army of god-tier terminators isn't going to seem very legit if mortal PCs (even high level ones) have any hope of defeating them in large groups. With actual millions of them I don't see any possible way to overcome them that wouldn't seem like incredibly contrived deus ex machina.

Ok i did bend the truth a bit,their are only 23 god killing tier robots.However their are millions of robots capable of facing minor demi-gods single handely which together could take a god out with about 3/4 of them dead.Plus theirs the Hunters,who are robots with the sole purpose of finding enemies and afflicting them with a curse that makes them deathly allergic to celestial bronze(what the god killing tier ones are made of).
that doesn't stop them from being chopped into million of prices and left in a bunch of places surrounded by traps and spending the rest of eturnity in agony

Hephaestus keeps trying to kill Dionysus.Which has proven to be a challenge,every time he dies he comes back a month later growing from grape vines or being birthed from a dolphin.
Hermes and Demeter are staying around because,hephaestus cannot afford to lose them(crappy trade and no plant growth is a very bad way to start an empire).
Soon I will talk about some of the titans namely hecate,helios,selune, and prometheus.
More research later and little thinking and heres what I got.
So helios got killed during the solar eclipse.This would have left the sun floating in place of 3 days before everything getting back to normal.However with some clever words from hecate it was stated that,"the length of the days assume of full rotation of the solar chariot,this cannot occur at the moment" thus the sun stays in place which is terrible for the planet.
For a handful of reasons this greatly expanded selunes and hecates power,whom are the greatest foes of hephaestus.
Prometheus stole zeus's lightning and gave it to humans.This allowed humans to survive some robots (which are weak to said lightning) and left zeus help less.
Zues is a jerk, but he survives. He has all of his tendons ripped out and survives. He gets re-strung, and he literally drops a mountain on a dude. How do robots survive a literal megaton mountain being dropped on them?
Now, in Troy Story we learn that Zues is THE STRONGEST GOD. Stronger than the other 11 combined... so while he can survive, that doesn't mean much for anyone else.
Haphaestus build Talos and could fight robo-fire with robo-fire, easy. In a one-on-one fight, he'd lose, but unless he gets jumped, he's fine.
Hermes is faster than the concept of death. Ain't no fire robots catching The Smartest God.
Apollo isn't immune to fire. His Con is just that high (as we hear from Ovid in the story where his son joy rides on his chariot).
Athena may not be Hermes with the ability to collect all knowledge from all people living or dead, but she's smart. She'll figure something out and kill more one-on-one than anybody else.
Artemis will snipe and use gorilla tactics until she's free. She and her possy mostly stay maidens in the same universe as Zues, Apollo, and Posideon for a reason. They'll be fine, they are literally the ultimate hunters.
Posideon the Earth Shaker is also strong AF. Maybe not Barbarian Raging everywhere like Zues, but he's the wizard or druid who can make the earth split, buckle and shake the robots into a chasm before crushing them in tons of earth... before dousing them with sea water.
Hades and Dread Persephone are the leaders of the underworld and the literal manifestation of death is their butler. We see how important that factor is in the tale of Sysiphus. They can't be killed without their own consent... and reaping isn't magic, but rather a force of nature. Everything corrodes and turns to dust. Hades and Persephone are sitting fine.

quote from Romantically Apocalyptic byVitaly S Alexius
In the lands where the sun hang forever in the sky there is the small town of plutosheart.The sunlands have little air so the town of plutosheart uses special machines (courtesy of hephaestus) that create air from various rocks.This made mining an important industry in the town,making it's god plutus a major figure.The town also serves as the home of the factories.Here hephaestus mass produces minor robots.This town also hosts the worlds largest still running bank.
I have to point out that not only have gods died but,3 gods have specifically died to a creation of hephaestus.hephaestus is also the only reason zeus is alive,because somehow zeus got saved by hephaestus's time traveling metal cat(probally a chronology error or plot hole but it's really funny).
Where did you get your information on the time traveling cat? Also, gods can only be killed by other gods.
a few youtube videos,2 large scale wiki's on greek mythos and a direct excerpt from anceint greek transcripts.Got it wrong though it was a time traveling dog.
Again pointing out the 3 times a creation of hephaestus killed a god.
Hermes could just run. Athena would come up with a successful battle plan using her strengths against their weaknesses. Killing Cronos or Gaea would have serious repercussions. Poseidon could just stay in the sea, where I imagine fire and robots are at a disadvantage to say the least. Rhea would surrender, but plot her escape and revenge and restitution over long years.

So, "god" is actually a weird word when dealing with Greek Myth. It makes them all sound much more like big G God than what they really are.
Like, the Olympians are all pretty close to immortal, which is why Chronos ate nearly all of them, and yet they survived. This isn't the same with the Titans, or "petty gods" who were their parents and are generally easier to kill... except for those who weren't and Zues fed to another Primeval force (Tartarus).
Heck, the only real story of Divine Mortality that I can remember is when Zues absorbs his first wife to prevent her from having a son to castrate and overthrow him... which results in the birth of Athena.

after some research on lesser olympians I have made the following conclusions.
Eris is attempting to stop ares and owns a hoard of broken robots and human rebels.
Thanotos is attempting to bring death to robots.
pan is extra dead .
helios is dead
persphone is now the queen of the underworld.

Hephaestus has immunity to fire damage though i feel like he would hold his own
i agree with Apollo but i think that all the gods who haven't died are being led by Athena to find a strategy of taking down the robots.
and also, when we say olympian gods, which age are we talking? like could the titans or giants join forces with the gods in ere of a bigger threat?
I feel like you read like 2 posts before posting yourself.A lot of the things you asked or wrote are right infront of you so just read the thread.
