Between others, I either use higher Initiative mod. or just call it depending on the situation.2) A creature can split their attacks among any targets on it's turn. So if it can use three attacks, and the first attack kills a PC, it still has two attacks. Note that creatures can split up their movement between any attacks, so it could attack-move-attack-move-attack. The Cleave-Through rule applies to a single attack to an adjacent creature within 5 ft of the target, which is a separate thing from your intended question.3) It applies to a single attack. In your example with the goblin with 10 hp, the goblin would be killed after one attack and the fighter would still have his/her second attack to use.4) I haven't really heard too much of breaking up for Multiattacks. It may be useful for a Boss-type creature, but the use of minions is always a good thing too. Legendary Actions are used in cases to help alleviate the dog-pile effect. Giving several turns to the same creature could work, but you would need to be careful with it's movement speed, reactions, and possible bonus action. I think this would be cleared up for you when you see that attacks (and movement) can be split up.</blockquote>
