Grom will stand on this side of the doorway if any of the party is spotted or one of the goblins makes a move towards us he is gonna release a Fire bolt
Just checking, 3' high wall providing cover for the enemy, caltrops in the space of free movement before the wall. If we enter and remain crouched they will have no line of sight from my understanding currently. Also the distance between the door we enter and the wall will also be important as well as the space in the room, is it square our rectangular? Are there any other doors we can see? Dim light upon entry but the light source for the room is on the other side of the wall? Just checking on what we will know from the group talking as Talien can't see in.
Shit, didn't see the next page until I posted. Alten has most of it covered XD

Arxius glances back to the door. She pushes her own pointed ears outward and scrunches up her face, baring her teeth, before holding three fingers out to her.
The sleeping goblin is against the western wall. So, two goblins next to each other are shooting dice. (Please see the Fortress Level Map for reference).

Answered in OOC, please let me know if you need more detail.
Arxius holds one finger up and indicates sleeping with her head to the side and her eyes closed. She then holds two fingers up and proceeds to shake her hand in front of her and throw it forward. Which, to Rees, would say playing dice. To the men in the party might look like something else.
"One of the goblins is asleep, the other 2 are playing a dice game," she translated again. "It doesn't seem like they've noticed us, or her, we should take advantage of their inattention."
You can try to sneak out there with her and attack the two playing dice first. With any luck, you'll each get off a couple of shots before they react. The rest of us can slowly work our way down this hall and avoid the caltrops as best we can.
{kind of a combo of options 1 &4}

Rees nods and slips through the door, moving forward slowly and stealthily toward Arxius.
Stealth: 8
Edit: WOW. Looks like we might have to go with plan B, guys............
Rees sneaks along the western wall and gets within five feet of Arxius when she kicks a caltrop and sends it skittering into the makeshift wall. Arxius and Rees both drop to the floor as soon as they hear the caltrop, their hearts pounding in their ears.
One of the [monster[goblin[/monster]s shooting dice stops and asks its partner in common, "Ehh... What waz dat? You hear sumthin' Snot?"
The second goblin hawks a green loogey and replies, "Ey? Hear sumthin'? Naw.. prolly just tha boyz in da' firein' range. Now shut it and roll so I can takez yer munny Dot!"
Alten exhales and thinks to himself "Thank Torm Goblins are none too bright. Apparently somebody up there like Rees. Maybe I should've tried sneaking down there"

Arxius carefully moves back into a crouched position, drawing her bow. She shakes her head to dismiss her friend’s apology and nods towards the wall. She does the dice action again and indicates to Rees she intends to attack one of the dice rollers if Rees takes the other.
Arxius will move into position and fire an arrow at one of the dice rollers.
Rees winces, mouthing Sorry to Arxius and holding her position for a moment to give the goblins a chance to get back into their game.
A few moments later you hear the sound of a pair of bone die hitting the hard stone ground then, "Raah-ha! Told ya I'd takes yer munnies ya stoopid foool!"
As they take their shots Alten starts moving down the hall slowly (at half speed), hugging the left wall. He'll go the 15 feet and Ready a crossbow attack if he sees an enemy he can shoot at. He motions for Talien to follow behind him with his crossbow ready. He also tries to signal to Meepo, Chatra, and Grom to start moving down as well.

Grom will let the planners plan and move as instructed... he isnt that stealthy but he would want to stay hidden

Taking a deep breath and hoping to redeem herself from the nearly botched stealthiness, Rees will fire at the other goblin.
