Tl;dr: How would a smart goblin warchief remodify the lair to have a chance against a group of stubborn end well equipped adventurers that may wonder into the region eventually?
Take a page from the Dwarf's book (probably stolen): dig deep and dig greedily.

I don't actually like it being a single entrance affair--poor circulation of air and no escape route. It makes it too easy to trap you and too easy to smoke you out.
>>47875683
Dig out another passage. Duh.
>>47875683
A button to flood the lair with lava of course
>>47875683
Start here.

FUCK THESE MOTHERFUCKERS! WHAT THE SHITTING COCK, THESE ASSLORDS FUCKING ONESHOT ALMOST ALL OF US!! CHALLENGE RATING FOR A LVL 2 CREW??? FUUUUCK YOU! THEY EVEN RAPED THE FANTASY GROUNDS DIE ALGORITHM BALLS DEEP SO WE COULDN'T EVEN HIT THEM FOR FOUR ROUNDS OF COMBAT!
A bugbear wouldn't be smart enough to think that far ahead, surely?

They are smarter than goblins at least, and they can set up reasonable, if uninspired, ambushes.

Kennel the wolves in a makeshift palisade outside. Pesky rogues can suck a dick.
Defensive choke in the first room. Deployable wooden barricades, polearms, bows and arrows stocked here. No traps that rely on mechanisms, it's a thoroughfare. Design to fall back when needed.
Dig exit tunnel from one of the rooms off the main corridor, so there's a secret exit for emergencies.
Store the loot in the room behind the secret door.
"Tax" the road instead of killing and eating the humans to keep the heat low.
Take levels in Druid.
Outside fort like defenses.
Make pacts/so favors for greedy fey to help shape surrounding wood.
Lease out section of base to hobgoblin mercs.

Generally speaking, they are two hobgoblins what organs are to humans. Similarly goblins are to hobgoblins what halflings are to humans. Technically the human and hobgoblin genomes are split into three different subspecies varying by size.

Ogres to humans.
I HATE the voice recognition on this phone.

I have no idea what it is you are trying to convey, please explain

I like to imagine you're dictating your posts on public transit. I hope you don't mind.

Bugbears>Hobgoblins>Goblins
Ogres>Humans>Halflings
>>47878028
Human is the baseline. Halfling is short scrawny human. Like a pygmy. Ogres are large lumbering humans. Genetically they're all technically related. Same goes for bugbears, hobgoblins, and goblins. They are all closely related subspecies.

I don't mind. You're not far off.
