As a GM I'd like to feel like I fully understand how to utilize my monsters tactically, but over the past couple months as I've been running the beginner box and now leading into Abomination Vaults, I feel as though I'm very often just making three strikes with an enemy or moving and striking twice unless the enemy has a very specific action in its statblock which is obviously better. Like a dragon is obviously supposed to use its breath weapon, but then I ran goblin warriors last night and I couldn't even figure out how to use their scurry reaction beneficially.

If they have something to hide behind, sure! Keep in mind that if they're adjacent to an enemy, they'll probably have to Take Cover, Hide, Strike. Or if they're not adjacent: Hide, Sneak, Strike.
