|san1=Aura of Animation ([[Su]])
|sad1=At the start of each of its turns, a Golem overlord animates objects similar to the ''[[SRD:Animate Objects|Animate Objects]]'' spell. It can control a maximum equivalent small objects equal to its HD, but otherwise can maintain animation or release animation of any object within 250 ft. at its leisure. Any animated object that moves outside this range is no longer animated by the aura.

|san2=Throw object ([[Ex]])
|sad2=The golem overlord can throw an object within its reach at an enemy within 250 ft., dealing damage based on the object's size. The golem must succeed at a ranged attack roll with a +35 bonus to hit (+30 for a second attack, +25 for a third attack, etc.). Note that the number of attacks it can make per round is still limited by its BAB and actions. See below for the action required and damage amount.

*A gargantuan object deals 20d6 damage and requires 1 round to use this ability. If the golem is dealt damage during this time, it must make a Strength ability check DC 10 + one fifth the damage dealt or drop the object on itself dealing 10d6 damage to the golem and object.
*A huge object requires a full-round action and deals 15d6 damage if it hits.
*A large object requires a standard action and deals 12d6 damage if it hits.
*A medium object requires a attack action and deals 6d6 damage if it hits.
*A small object requires a swift action and deals 2d6 damage if it hits.

The object always takes an equal amount of damage that would have been dealt on impact. Any object that is not very dense (such as a ball of fluff or a ball of linen sheets) will deal either no damage or 1 damage per 1d6 that would have been dealt, up to the DM's discretion.

If a golem overlord throws an animated object, it may make a free attack against the target.

|san3=Powerful Slam ([[Ex]])
|sad3=The golem overlord's slam attacks allow it to make a size-modified strength check against the opponent it hits for a total of +22 to the check. The opponent may add any stability bonuses or size bonuses. For every 2 points the golem beats its opponent by on the check, the opponent is pushed back 5 feet. This movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity.

|san10=Solo Encounter ([[Ex]])
|sad10=The golem overlord is meant to be fought on its own by a party with CR 14 (it brings its own mooks to the battle). As such, it has increased HP, AC, Saves, etc. for a monster of its CR.
