I am getting to start a campaign.
The party is stranded on an abandoned island awaiting rescue. Upon exploring the island they will discover they aren't the only inhabitants.
Near the islands center lies a small goblin encampment. The goblins are led by a Goblin Ranger and his monkey, King O-ma-bu-sha-ka.
There will be 4 players, fighter/oracle/rogue/bard, with higher than normal stat lines. This will be a slow, long campaign.
Below are the creatures they will encounter. I'm looking for advice if this seems like fair-challenging encounter for them on their first night. They are all very experienced and advanced players that work well together.

In total the encounter would be the ranger, 3 regular goblins, and King (monkey).
Please give me your opinions on what you think of this. I haven't provided the tactics etc, but the goblins and monkey will work together as best a bunch of goblins and a poo flinging monkey can ;)
