Last session the party (5 level 6) almost lost their battle. Only the ranger remained conscious and was able to finish off the last attacker. They are out of dailies and low on surges. Here is the situation. They are attempting to rescue slaves that are being used by the Elven kingdom to mine ore. The fight they had took place just outside of the mine with the guards stationed there. I rolled a perception check to see if the guards in the mine heard the battle and they did not.
At the end of the session the players were not sure of their next move. They could go back into the forest to rest, the could forge ahead or they could send in the sneakier members to do some recon.
I'm not sure how to respond to these choices and still make the rescue possible. They fought 6 guards outside and I was figuring there would be 2 to 3 times as many inside. This would allow prisoners for the guards and a set to be resting.
I could use some ideas as I am having difficulty coming up with some good responses.
