(Do we get the sense we can get the miners in to do what they need to do, or are the enemy close neough that is not an option?)
( None of you are really skilled in judging times to set up and perform a demolition.....but if Leewinette is asked it'll take about 30 mins to do safely, from the noises in the tunnels you have about 10-15 mins.)
Lindale was at loss here too so just threw some ideas into the air: "We need to buy some time to our miners. Can we set a trap? Nothing special, just to give those coming a pause. When they are close - a web, then if they overcome it and not turning back - they would step into a trap. Can we do it fast?"
They set traps just a moments ago, all they had to do is to repeat it. Somewhere deeper into the tunnel, but not too far from the exit.

If they brought the miners in they could possibly dig some deadfalls and the like but that would take time they don't have. Without the trees and plants that were available outside building a trap is simply going to take too long.
"The only tracks were from the bigger, steeper tunnel leading down... so maybe we can bottleneck them and hold them off there."
Banzo gestures for everyone to take positions at that tunnel and get ready.
"I will use the Web spell when I can catch a bunch of them in it. It should block the whole tunnel and prevent those in the back from getting through."
Keeping an eye down the tunnel Lindale can spot a huge beetle the size of a cabin climbing up the tunnel, a half dozen dark elves are hanging onto its side and a slighter older dark elf is walking on the ceiling of the tunnel with an impatient look on his face.
They are currently about 150 ft away and don't seem to have spotted any of you.
As the enormous beetle approaches something alerts those attached to its side ( it was probably Hatch ;) ), and a cry goes up. They know someone is there.
( The enemy is now about 50' away, and will be acting on Initiative 12)
(are any close enough for me to run at and attack?)
(( Currently they are all 50' away but moving 30'/round....however Banzos Web will appear in front of you as you run towards them.......or can trap you inside with them if you wish.)

( He casts just before you and will, likely drop the web directly on them as it only covers a 20' space......so if you stick to the sides of the tunnel you can move in 30' and attack. Though you will need to make a Dex save to move back out of the area.)
"Should we let them in, or meet in the tunnel?" Just in case Lindale picked up a few rocks and charmed them preparing to attack.

Hatch stands firm, hoping his allies have a plan. If he must he'll fight all oncomers!
Brocc has no plan so looks to the others.

Brocc takes up a position with the others, ready to deal with these newcomers when they arrive.
If they brought the miners in they could possibly dig some deadfalls and the like but that would take time they don't have. Without the trees and plants that were available outside building a trap is simply going to take too long.
Banzo readies his spell.
Behind you you can hear the miners starting to dig and set up.

Lindale would attack as soon as web is in place (and enemies are in range - 60ft)
