[Tom-Slayer]

I want to have a different party, NPC's who i don't really like but i want to try. Im unsure on some of them and im unsure if i should get the other one.(Tob)
The party is as follows ;

Me-Archer
Minsc-Ranger(I have used him before, but how can i say no again?)
Imoen-thief/mage(romance, and i mean, she is imoen and im role playing)
Mazzy-fighter(related to the ranger stronghold, never used her, unsure if shes a good tank)
Jan-thief/mage(I never get tired of those uncle scratchy tales...)
Anomen-Cleric/fighter( i am using him because i need a cleric, i've never done his Q's.)

NPC's i could use but unsure why and how they would fit in ;

Aerie(I would have her for minsc, but frankly she dies to quickly and YES i do keep her at the back of the battle field with spells buffed, but my party will be um quite the go getters.)

Jaheira(Does anyone else realise shes almost worse than imoen and anomen? Moan moan moan.)

So there u have it, any suggestions would be nice, will this party be alright, and should i get *ahem* in Tob. If so why? i cant see it from a roleplaying perspective.

Thanx in advance
