Are there enemies visible from the (now-broken) front door that I can attack from outside? If so, should we roll up Init? Also, do you have any more information on location of enemies or a battle map? [@The Mighty Hero]

I am working on a map now (not just for combat but for the rest of the mayor's manor and other areas you may be exploring soon). If you would rather fight than attempt to persuade/intimidate the guards into joining you or to run away etc. then yes, players will need to roll for initiative. 

From outside you would be able to see the guards lying prone on the floor as it's only about ten feet in that the stairs to the upper level start. To the right of the stair case is a large open space that looks like its used for entertaining guests. There are knickknacks on shelves and overstuffed arm chairs of a more luxurious quality than what one could ever hope to find in the village. To the left is another corridor that you currently can't see where it leads but since I am about to be off lunch I'm just going to go ahead and tell you there is only one visible door in the corridor on the left hand side (so towards the front of the house), and it is closed but has light from candlelight underneath the door). Behind the stair case (which is not visible from the front door is the kitchen and dining area.
