[QUOTE="UngainlyTitan, post: 4490438, member: 28487"] I had a similar situation with differences. In my case the party split up in the entrance chamber. THe tiefling paladin and halfling rogue had ganged up on a goblin and kept missing, the gobbo would shift and then manover to get a shot in and they followed him to torture chamber and triggered that encounter. They survived due the fact they had bought healing potions, the plaladin being a hard ass, some help from Splurg and the torturer rolling 5 ones in a row. Meawhile their two buddiies the elven ranger and the dragonborn fighter die in the entrance chamber. The survivers flee when they get back to the entrance and hear some more goblins on the way and Splurg does not stick as they are obviously losers. So some new charactes later I decide that Balgron tries to set an ambush. Initially to lure them further toward the escavation room and then come out the secret door. It failed when the dragonborn warlock spots the secret door and jams it shut. While they nearly get it the delay was long enough to deal with each group separately and Balgron flees. So yes, Balgron would try something. If he gets reinforcement from the hobgoblins then it would be a very tough encounter but the reward would that there would be no hobgoblins in the barrack or some such. [/QUOTE]
