Just finished plotting to kill a duchess and had her spymaster in on it. At first he plotted to saw through a railing on her balcony and then a couple of days later second message appeared and said he planned to poison her at a banquet. A month later the duchess plummeted to her death from her balcony when the railing gave way. Interestingly enough the very next day she was successfully poisoned at her banquet but my complicity was discovered... unless the developers are looking to create a zombie horde expansion pack I think this was quite literally overkill. ;)

BTY, the plot had a power of 300+% and fired in a couple of months... thanks.

Edit: Just ran it again from an autosave. This time he killed her three times and I was again exposed. Looks like this might be a bigger problem than I thought... another week without plots.

Figured this was here somewhere and knowing this was likely to happen on this organised death - screenshots.

Can we possibly get a "wait don't take action yet" button, or something along those lines.

Success and failure on the same day, I get away with knowledge of my handy work not being uncovered.

Next day, he is killed again and escapes 2 other attempts on his life. One of which reveals my plans to his relatives.
Also I no longer want to kill him. This sometimes results in failed plot penalties but not this time.
