Pops points out a couple of possible trees just NE of the wagon to Brats. To the rest of the group he mumbles, "I'll be right back." Pops will head NNE into the brush and then turn East once he's under the cover of the trees, trying to remain as quiet and as hidden as possible.
Once Petros gathers his bearing, you spot two dead horses sprawled about fifty feet ahead of you, blocking the path. Each has several black-feathered arrows sticking out of it. The woods press close to the trail here, with a steep embankment and dense thickets on either side.
The blue dot is the adventuring party. The yellow dot is the downed horses.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Brats
Brats follows quietly behind Pops, about a 30 foot space between them. Once they have entered the cover of the trees, he chooses a nearby tree that Pops had pointed out earlier and attempts to climb it.
Athletics: 25 (+2 if Natural Explorer takes affect)
[OOC: I will roll stealth too as I am following behind? Stealth: 8(+2 if Natural Explorer takes affect)]
Ny gets down off the wagon watching the others from a plan. As pops sets out she reaches out and touches him as he passes. "May your sense be keen" Turning back to the others. "What do you two make of this? Seems strange to just leave them in the path. That and the strange noises Brats reports gives me a bad feeling."
I cast Guidance on Pops. (You have 1d4 extra to roll on an ability check. You can roll before or after you make the check.)
Petros joins Nyana. "Strange indeed Nyana. With those arrows and the obvious bottleneck created by the natural circumstances of our environment, one must conclude that this is a most deliberate trap! Yet, trap or not, we are going to need to get this wagon down the path one way or another. Do you think we can clear the path?"
Pops mostly disappears into the woods as he makes his way away from the cart. Brats is not quite as quiet. Once Brats makes his way to the tree, he finds his way up easily. From Brats vantage point, he sees a goblin (goblin 1) in the woods beginning to take aim with a bow. The goblin (1) is leveraging it toward the members in the cart. Before releasing the arrow, he calls out in goblin.
For those who speak goblin, you understand the following:
Attack! Take the cart and the oxen!
I use spoilers to hide information that is only allowed for certain people that would be able to know what is being said.
The arrow flies from the woods in the north toward the cart. The attack is meant for 2 (1:Petros, 2: Sven 3:Nyana).
I will randomize attacks sometimes with a roll.
Attack: 19 Damage: 4 piercing
Two more goblins (goblin 2 & 3) holding scimitars and shields move out of the forest toward the cart. They're about 40 feet from the cart. They're giving a goblin war cry as they exit the forest.
Goblin 1 gets a surprise round against you all. Now we will enter initiative.
We are now in combat initiative. I run PBP games as group initiative. Group 1 consisting of Brats and Nyana are up first. Then group 2, the goblins, will act. Then group 3 consisting of Pops, Petros and Sven can go.
The arrow flies true toward Sven, striking him in the chest.
Brats and Nyana are up! Right now, you know of the 3 goblins. Goblin 1 is rather well hidden behind cover. Goblin 2 & 3 are about 40 feet from the cart.
Brats, hearing the goblin shout, turns towards the cart, shouting toward the group. "Be careful! They're coming for the cart! Pops, we have incoming!" He turns back toward Goblin 1 and readies his bow.
Ny moves for cover behind the wagon. Peaking around the edge she yells. "Looks like it was a trap!" Glancing down the road to get vision on Goblin 2. She whispers. "Mishakal be with us."

[OOC: How close is Goblin 1 to me?]
Goblin 1 is about 40-50 feet from you. Goblin 1 is behind some cover, but you'll have advantage on the attack since you are above goblin 1 if you're making a ranged attack.
Those unfamiliar with advantage/disadvantage: Roll 2 d20's for your attack, ability check or saving throw. With advantage, take the better result. With disadvantage, take the lower result.

Casting Sacred Flame on Goblin 1 (Dex DC:13 Damage:7)
Goblin 1 is outside your target range for that spell. 70 feet away from you.
Sven had moved up slightly trying to get a better view and the arrow strikes him in the chest. "Watch out they're goblins and they're coming for the supplies! Arghhh!!!!" He screams slightly in pain as tbe arrow lands. He readies his halberd if one enters his threatened area he jabs at them.
[Tooltip Not Found] Attack: 7 Damage: 5
ooc: the attack is for if they close with my reach they provoke an opportunity attack.
OOC: Nevermind, wasn't my turn to do anything yet.
Has Pops been spotted yet? He continues to head ESE stealthily through the woods to see if if can get behind Goblin 1 (if he's still alive). He hopes to get a better look - and a better headcount - and to get the jump on Goblin #1 or another easy target with his short sword. (Or Goblin 4? Where's Goblin 4?)
Goblin1 takes an arrow through the chest and falls onto his back. He screams out before dying.
Nyana will cast sacred flame on goblin 2. He must make a dex save to evade the spell attack.
Dex save: 7
Goblin 2 cannot evade the magical flame brought down on him. He takes full damage. Goblin 2 is now bloodied. (bloodied is a condition of being at half HP or less)

Petros watches Pops and Brats head to the forest. He walks back to the wagon to wait with the others.
Nyana

"What do you two make of this? Seems strange to just leave them in the path. That and the strange noises Brats reports gives me a bad feeling."
