Half cover. (and the new stat blocks don't mention shields in the AC. I think it's part of their attempt to simplify it but I might still adjust for lack of shield).
Neldak and Etriel finish another one off.
[[ OOC: Oh, do as you wish then... My mention of the shield was dictated precisely by the fact that in the 2014 rules it was specified that the shield also contributed to the AC of the goblins... If the 2024 rules do not specify it, obviously do as you see fit. ]]
A small smile curls the eladrin huntress' lips as her arrow finds its target in spite of the cover - and finishes it off.
'Another one bites the snow...' Etriel Darastrix thinks 'We can do this.'
Now that he’s 80 feet away, Danon pulls out his short bow, notching an arrow and aiming at another one of the goblins. He gets the arrow off and it seems to track true, he runs another 40 feet closer to the goblins, ready to get into hand to hand combat with them. He looks back at his companions, hoping that they are closing the distance too behind him.
Short bow : 25 to hit, for 10 points piercing damage to another goblin.
Cirim and Danon kill another one. Idalie hits the cart, with one blast that would have been a direct hit if they were not behind cover.
The two remaining ones fire another bolt at Danon and at Cirim (as everyone else is outside their normal range and they are smart enough to go for someone easier to hit)
Nat 1 on Danon, and a 12 on Cirim so two misses.
You also see another goblin climb to the top of the tall wagon (240ft away from where you started) with a lit torch in one hand, and a hawk on her other arm, watching the battle.
'They are falling one after another...' Etriel Darastrix thinks 'We can make kil them all before the reinforcements arrive! We can do it'
Determined more than ever, the eladrin huntress advances further towards the enemies and takes aim to shoot another arrow. Her green eyes search with merciless lucidity for a target already wounded by put out of his misery (and of the fight)...
[[ OOC: Etriel Darastrix advances another 30' with her Movement, then Attacks with her Longbow - targeting an already wounded goblin, if any; else the closest. ]]
Danon is 40 feet away, he pulls his bowstring and lets another arrow loose at the last Goblin, hoping it strikes true. He runs 40 feet closer, closing the distance. If the goblin is still up, he takes a bonus action unarmed strike, he does a roundhouse kick at the goblin, hoping to bring him down. He stands afterwards, glaring at the goblin with the hawk, curious to see what his next move will be..
Action : Short bow : 18 to hit, for 9 points of piercing damage.
Movement : 40 feet closer, closing the distance with the remaining goblin.
Bonus action : Unarmed attack, roundhouse kick to the goblin if it is still standing : 11 to hit, for 9 points of bludgeoning damage.
Etriel Darastrix moves toward the sled again. If she reaches it, she quickly checks to see if the ingots are actually still there. And for a moment she is tempted to simply take the sled and, together with the party, push it back to the city... but it is only a moment: "We can't leave that goblin alive," she reasons, matter-of-factly. "We won't be able to get away before he unleashes I don't know how many of his companions to hunt us down. We have to kill him, too. And then maybe tie the sled to the wagon with the polar bears and escape with that, so we can be faster."
Consistent with her reasoning, the eladrin huntress takes aim and tries to impale the surviving goblin with an arrow...
Danon runs forward toward the goblin with the hawk, moving 40 feet, but then he uses his focus to run another 40 feet, using step of the wind to travel forward 80 feet this turn. This puts him within bow distance of the goblin and he fires an arrow at him.
Movement : 40 feet forward
Bonus action : Step of the wind to move another 40 feet
Action : Short bow to attack the goblin : 20 to hit, for 10 points of piercing damage.

Cirim will use her Adrenaline Rush, bonus action dash, to run 60 ft closer, then fire a Fire Bolt at a goblin, wounded first!
18 dmg: 2 fire
Idalie will cast Scorching Ray at the three goblins that look the most hurt.
SR 1
Attack: 12 Damage: 4
SR 2
Attack: 16 Damage: 6
SR 3
Attack: 9 Damage: Unable to parse dice roll.
"Yeah, take that you little green freaks!" Idalie cries out in a very not-Paladin way.
Unhappy that the market got rid of individual purchases for one-off subclasses, magic items, and monsters?
Provide feedback!
And it looks like Idalie has done absolutely nothing useful this round.

One more is down and Danon and Idalie might manage to get the last one of the initial group down

Eldritch blast vs. Goblin

Danon almost kills it with the bow, but the strike fails to connect. Idalie finishes it off.
The goblin in the distance keeps watching, but takes no further action (it dodges if you are planning on attacking)

Bump (and Etriel misses)

Seeing that the battle is not yet over, Cirim joins Etriel in trying to take down the last goblin.
w/ disadvantage: 12 dmg: 9
Danon runs forward toward the goblin with the hawk, moving 40 feet, but then he uses his focus to run another 40 feet, using step of the wind to travel forward 80 feet this turn. This puts him within bow distance of the goblin and he fires an arrow at him.
Movement : 40 feet forward
Bonus action : Step of the wind to move another 40 feet
Action : Short bow to attack the goblin : 20 to hit, for 10 points of piercing damage.
Neldak slows as he reaches the sled the goblins had taken. He'll do a quick inventory with a 28 investigation.
