Unless advised otherwise, Brie will continue to work on the torpedo, as that seems a feasible resource/asset for deployment against something that as yet the party isnt sure can even die.

"Oh. If I'm to be making this into something we can use," Brie actually looks up from the circuitry and hardware, "Somepony will need to take this," he says, unwinding the camera from his neck.

Sweat beginning to bead on his forehead, Brie pulls out another cigarette, lights it, and continues working. In that it's a military explosive, it tbankfully will be insulated to not be set off by sparks or firearm damage. Still, any one of these wires could be catastrophic if disconnected at the wrong time or in the wrong order. Now because it's military that means the production level will be a standardized corporate bid, which explains why these wires ARE ALL THE SAME FUCKING COLOR... Brie rees in his head

Brie thinks back to the dozens of times hes deployed a frag grenade, particularly because he's anticipating having to deploy both of the ones on his bat.
In that his player has an autistic obsession with realistic detail (in a pony game ffs) heres 2 pics and a video depicting a frag grenade in use. Notice the gas pattern (including 12 o'clock, tho I didnt do that line). The supposition then would be that a frag might not be effective against diagonally adjacent opponents, but only directly perpendicular opponents

"What are you curious in the logbook for? Is there any information you seek?"

This is the fourth airplane Posey has seen in her life, she examines it curiously, giving one of the wings a soft kick, testing its durability
"It's no siege crab or driver beetle, but perhaps these new flying engines of war have something to offer..." she says, mostly to herself
>"Imagine if a ghost or other entity haunted one of these. It would make a formidable minion. I will have to note the potential for animate flying contraptions in my report to the masters."
She thinks to herself.

Absentmindedly, Brie purses his lips, and softly whistles a tune as he works. He had heard it previously in occidental encounters, but only recently had it struck his mind and awareness to the point that dammit, sometimes it just plays in head.

After at least one full rendition of the song, he realizes what he is doing. If he wasn't wearing camo makeup, you could see he is blushing, and he looks angrily around at everypony/creature, as though his embarrassment is their fault.

I am going to reiterate that I am outside the blast radius of the torpedo when the rogue auto-fails the check to disarm it by trying to take 20 on it instead of taking 10.

Anyone who wants to talk to Posey should meet her outside the plane, in fact, she specifically insists so:
"I would prefer to speak about these matters outside this cramped plane. Let us ALL go outside, RIGHT NOW."
One of her Dreads pick up her bags, and the other gingerly leads Pipette by the hoof as she bolts out the door.

Its been a long time since she's been able to let go, she thinks as she free-falls, gingerly intercepted by a very happy Uatchit.
Their game, for visualization purposes, is kind of like Marco Polo. Anyway, in REAL time it's been probably only 6 months, but as time dilation fucks you, its been close to a decade. Theres alot that she hasnt had the time to process.
And so, as she swirls into the clouds with her flyfren, a few tears drop

Meanwhile Brie is STILL ON THIS FUCKING TORPEDO

Where is that written? I can't find a rule saying that, under the description of the knowledge skill or the description of taking 10.
I know you can't take 10 on the Knowledge (Religion/Nature) check to sacrifice a creature, but I am unaware of any other restrictions.

I don't really care either way. I just made the check because others requested it.

If you wanna get technical, the only rule that really matters is the DMG final note (page 4) which reads
<The power of creating worlds, controlling deities and dragons, and leading entire nations is in your hands. You are the master of the game-the rules, the setting, the action, and ultimately, the fun.

I don’t believe a disarm device check can or should be a “take a 20.” That’s a skill where a critical failure is very much undesirable, and technically taking a 20 is doing it continuously until you succeed.

The torpedo weighs about a ton, and the warhead is about 550 pounds. The warheads is percussion detonated. The remaining portion includes a tank of compressed air, fuel (either gasoline or methanol, I’m not sure), an engine and depth measurement equipment. The torpedo is hanging on the rails suspended above the ground, stuck, I kind of think a use rope check may be advisable.
