Jimjar, despite his eagerness to join the battle on the other side of the bridge, has no wish to jeopardize Eldeth by making the bridge unstable. So, he grabs the scout and pulls her into the guard tower and begins to cross the bridge.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Jimjar steps to H9 (5ft), grapples Eldeth (action) who allows it. Jimjar then backs up to G9 (10ft), moves Eldeth out of the way (Eldeth to G8)(10 ft) and steps to H9 (5ft).
The drow (Jaezred) will cast Faerie Fire, catching everyone on the platform. I need a DC 11 DEX Saving throw from: Derendil, Tozer, Topsy, Turvy, Narstin, Xilyra, Beegred and Shuushar.

(The next time you update the spreadsheet, Beegred took 6 damage from an opportunity attack early in combat.)
Sarith: (I believe there are 2 more hand crossbows + quivers left in the armory.) Sarith grabs the remaining crossbows + quivers, and goes down the ladder to F9. Drops one set for someone else to grab; gets ready to shoot next round. Also yells at Valthana and Shuushar to "Help out, or get the Abyss out of the way! If we lose this fight because you are dry humping the doorway, I will shoot you in the face before they shackle me again." (This is all in Elvish, so I don't know if they understand his ranting.)
Beegred: Shoots at Jaezred, hoping to break his concentration, or maybe kill him outright. Attack: 14 piercing damage: 6
(Edit: Will be using DM inspiration for advantage on attack roll. 17 Assuming the 17 hits, and that Jaezred is still alive after the 6 damage, I assume these Drow bolts are poisoned. He needs to make a DC 13 CON save or be poisoned for an hour.)

(Heh, I didn't have Sarith in the right place on the map. But you're on the ball, so now the map is accurate. :P )
Sarith's elvish rant is heard by all in the tower, to some a strange language heard but at the same time telepathically communicated in everyone's native language.
(I was under the impression that Hand Crossbows required specialized proficiency, but DnDBeyond lists it as a common weapon and Beegred's character sheet automatically gives him proficiency with it... so until further notice, no penalty for using them.)
With Beegred's (inspired) attack, the drow (Jaerzred) succumbs to his wounds. The faerie fire dissipates at the same time.
Valthana sneers at Sarith, telepathically communicating "I will protect the little one with my life, but it was not safe out there for him. And I can't see in the darkness either. I will fight here where there is at least a little light." Valthana will push past Eldeth by vaulting up onto the table. She'll put Stool down on the table (F7), then step down next to the ladder (E8), shouting up "I need my gear. Battleaxe, Longbow, Shield!"
Narstin lays a hand on Derendil's shoulder for a moment, casting Guidance on him. "Keep trying to throw them off," he says in elvish. "The others can fire at them as they try to climb back up, and they could get caught by the spiders on the way down."
(If it is not too late, Beegred wanted to use his movement to go to N11, or if that is too crowded, M11. He needs to make more space for people crossing the bridge.)
Beegred seeing Jaezred slump down: "I am glad you are dead, you torturing son of a Black Pudding."

Contested athletics check for quaggoth: 18
Even though quaggoth are not the brightest underdark denizens, this one sees Derendil try the same thing twice and slaps the attempt aside before it can even start.
(I've made a mess of this. Sorry, team.)

Dex saving throws:
Ferriman asks below what people need first and Ront replies, "Javelins!" Ferriman drops 2 javelins down the trapdoor.
Ront grabs one javelin, steps to H9 and throws it at the drow (Jaezred).
Javelin Attack: 15 Damage: 6
The javelin hits, embedding itself into the torso. The drow grabs it with a hand and leans to keep his balance, gravely wounded.
Concentration saving throw (DC 10) to maintain Faerie Fire: 18
(Need saving throws against Faerie Fire to continue with NPC actions)
Narstin: 10
derendil: 6
Beegred DEX save: 9

Dexterity saving throw for Tozer: 19
The quaggoth moves from O5 to O7 and attacks Tozer twice:
Claw Attack: 7 Damage: 8
Claw Attack: 14 Damage: 7
Tozer ducks below one swipe but gets clobbered by the other. (already applied damage to sheet)
Shuushar dashes to get across the bridge. (O11 to H9)
Topsy sees Narstin, Beegred and Derendil glowing from the Faerie Fire, and shoots at the nearest drow.
Hand Crossbow Attack: 13 Damage: 6
Turvy sees Topsy try to shoot the drow through the crowd and miss. He steps to N10 and tries to do the same.
Hand Crossbow Attack: 11 Damage: 6
and misses.
(Sarith, Beegred, Valthana, Eldeth and Narstin can act for round 7. Updated map incoming.)
(The next time you update the spreadsheet, Beegred took 6 damage from an opportunity attack early in combat.)
Sarith: (I believe there are 2 more hand crossbows + quivers left in the armory.) Sarith grabs the remaining crossbows + quivers, and goes down the ladder to F9.

After seeing the drow die, Beegred makes room for others to cross the bridge. (M10 to N11).
Narstin traces a rune on Derendil and speaks divine words. Derendil feels more capable.
The first quaggoth to fall over the edge climbs another 60 ft (dash) and reaches the edge of the platform.
(Tozer, Xilyra and Derendil's turns to act.)
Tozer absorbs the quaggoth's blow and feels the sting of his fresh wound. Deeply resenting the fact that he must do so, he disengages from the melee.
Derendil grabs the quaggoth by the edge of the stairs and tries to shove it off.
Athletics (disadvantage for shove aside): 17 + 4 from guidance
Contested athletics check for quaggoth: 18
