Doing things Theatrically for a second before combat starts (If any movement is made, it does NOT count against the turn you get.)
Zandrich approaches, knocking a rock off the wall with his shoulder but catching it before it hits the ground (re-roll effect). As Kal is crouched on the side of the pool, the goblin stands out of sight stunned momentarily. You hear multiple Goblins shriek in agony and blood chilling screeches and some loud bangs from the other side of the door as the remainder of the party approaches. The door slams open and tilts half fallen from the impact as you all look around the corner to see a Half-Ogre backlit by a fire from inside a room with a broken door. His eyes are yellow and seem to shine against his light blue and dark black skin. He has a goblin impaled on his greatsword still shrieking as he swings it the body hits the ground with a sickeningly wet thud and the body seems to rip into 2 separate pieces with some entrails and being the only thing to connect the two. You can see manacles attached to him but it seems he has broken them in his escape. He takes a deep breath and an arrow comes from the hall barely missing him and hitting the wall near Kal. He yells something in Orcish to you as he turns to face the enemies coming down from the hall. You see 8 more goblins emerge (in addition to the one still frozen in fear behind the half orc)
Throg (The Half Orc) is 15 feet away from Kal who is the closest one to him currently.
The rest of the group has now gathered around behind Kal as of now.
Zandrich steps out of kal's shadow, bow drawn as hard as his little halfling arms can pull it, taking aim at the first piece of shit goblin he sees coming from the hallway, and lets his arrow fly.
Shadrac hits the goblin solidly with his Warhammer, but the leather armor seems to absorb most of the blow dealing 5 damage. You see the leather armor crack from the blow as it is old and dried out
Tactical situation:One goblin in melee with the half orc and Shadrac, right? One other goblin near them but not directly engaged, and a half dozen or so that just showed up
For the other half dozen goblins that came out, how far away from me and how far away are Shadrac and the half orc?
Any of them stand out as looking different in some way? Is one obviously bigger and barking orders to the rest? Is one in robes while the rest are in armor?

One goblin in melee range of Shadrac and the half orc.
One goblin behind them about 25 feet back.
The other goblins are currently spread out at the hallway, and you see one wearing helmet or a dented bowl, you can't tell what exactly from this distance with the lack of light.
Shadrac and half orc are about 20 feet from you directly.
I'll take a shot at the goblin wearing the bowl/helment.
Attack: 17 Damage: 22
(5 if attack roll is at disadvantage due to lighting)
After taking the shot, if there is anywhere to gain some cover within movement range, I'll take it. If not, I just don't want to be bunched up with the rest of the party. I'll take my movement to put as much distance between me and the bad guys as possible while still being able to be aware of the battle field

Kal's arrow pierces through the makeshift helm and sticks through to the other side, he moves back about 10 feet behind the "clump" of other party members revealing Zandrich hiding behind him to the goblins (he was hiding)

Goblin 1 - (The one behind the half-orc and Shadrac near the lever used to make the surge of water) Moves around the edge of the room over to where the broken door is and enters the room with the fire. He disappears from view but you hear him yell to the other goblins.
(In Goblin) Kill dems now or we kills dem layters, maybeyz dey cans help kills Klargg.
Goblin 8 - Pulls out a dagger and throws it at Shadrac, headless of the other goblins words. Attack: 7 Damage: 4 He moves to the side out of sight of the party (except Shadrac and the Half Orc)
Shadrac gets hit by the dagger, and it cuts into his arm, the dagger waivers as if to fall out but it sticks.
Goblin 4 - Charges the half orc and screams as he swings wildly with his scimitar. Attack: 15 Damage: 4
The wild attack seems to be the goblin swinging wildly, you can't seem to predict the trajectory of the attack and it deals 2 damage to the half orc.
Goblin 5 - Pulls out a bow and shoots at the shadowy figure that is Zandrich. Attack: 19 Damage: 9. He takes a bonus action to Hide 19
The goblin can't seem to make out his true form and the arrow misses completely.
Who/what are we still waiting on?

Niche tries to finish off Goblin #8 by sending a crossbow bolt through its neck
Attack 23
Damage 11
The bolt pierces the goblins neck, cutting her spinal cord cleanly as she falls to the floor.
A goblin, seemingly enraged by this attacks the half orc with his scimitar Attack: 18 Damage: 4 (deals 2 damage due to rage)
The slash connects with the half orc's chest, but it does not seem to be a significant blow.
Shadrac you are up
Warforged Fighter Talien
I rush the goblin that attacked the half-orc and try to hit him with my war hammer.
To hit 16
Damage 6 plus strength bonus
Shadrac hits the goblin solidly with his Warhammer, but the leather armor seems to absorb most of the blow dealing 5 damage. You see the leather armor crack from the blow as it is old and dried out
