This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.

Attack: 6 Damage: 6
The arrows come through the wall like nothing as both Rolend and Latirus quickly react. They tackle the party in the back as the arrows fly. Alter is still hit though as he is knocked prone. Rolend prevents Kierro from getting an arrow stuck in his chest but finds one struck his back. Davar tries to run over as well but finds his path blocked. As a hobgoblin materializes before him, where the tracks cut off, and strikes at him with his sword.
Rolend is at 2 hp. He is seriously considering running away, except that a single crossbow bolt is now enough to take him down.
(OOC: I'm being paranoid, but this is very likely a TPK. When using the guidelines from the DMG, a "Deadly" threshold is 600 XP. This encounter with 7 hobgoblins is equivalent to 1400 XP, way way beyond Deadly. These guys have better AC and HP than most of the party, will 1-hit our characters (with the extra 2D6 damage from Martial Advantage), and the party has already taken a lot of damage.)
