Because this plan would be far too difficult to actually play out in game, this will serve as the official summary for how the rescue operation in Tinworth went down. However, this does not mean those involved aren’t allowed to thread. Please feel free to have your own smaller threads of the plan, just make sure that you follow the overall plot arch written below.
On Saturday evening of March 24th, Lucius Malfoy hosts one of his annual parties filled with food, sex, potions and alcohol. Under the diligent research and work of Renee Dawlish, she has identified the supplier of Malfoy’s alcohol stores and in order for the owner and employees to stay out of jail, they’ve agreed to help the Ministry in spiking all of the alcohol with a specially developed potion.
This potion is a type of deep sleeping potion with a time delay and no known antidote, as it has been specially synthesized by the Ministries top Potioneers. Once the bottles of liquor are opened, the potion will activate itself after 2 hours, all at the same time. This means that anyone who has ingested it will fall prey to its effects at the same time (and gives followers some time to thread party stuff before shit goes down). Of course, it’s not going to be perfect, and some individuals within Tinworth won’t fall right away, but they will within probably 10 minutes of each other, and incapacitate a huge chunk of the population.
Once the potion has taken effect Helen Dawlish, Angelina Johnson, Apollo Savage and Simon McLaggen will be able to gather wands at the party for their own usage.
They’ll then use this newfound leverage to fight off those in Tinworth who are still conscious, as well as overtake the gate guards and open the wards to the Ministry Aurors, who will be waiting outside. The Aurors will assist in also taking out those who have not fallen prey to the potion and assist in rescuing Adam Savage, who currently is not very mobile, and they will grab Nadia Shacklebolt, who is running back to the Rosier Estate for a moment and fell prey to the potion herself.
Everyone will be rescued in this attempt. It will be an all out win for the Ministry to get back its citizens. However, this is not a situation where they want to provoke or start an altercation either, because by the time everyone is rescued, the potion will begin to wear off and they will have to flee to avoid casualties.
Yes, I know the plan isn’t perfect, but please handwave along with me. They're not going for the elder wand because the potion is not a science, but a risk, and with Lucius being extra pumped up with magic there is a chance he will wake up before everyone else. Also, they do not have the time to go through the entire party to find Lucius Malfoy. The main focus is captives, not a counterattack against Tinworth, before anyone asks.
