[I wish my name was Baggins]

In the past, (Once upon a thread) I posed the concept of the feasability of an all Mage party. It was decided by the forum that such a party would get worked and never survive to get to the high levels where they could be fearsome.

So with that whim behind me the conversation in a recent thread has made me wonder about an all thief party. After all I believe that I have encountered enough thieves in the game to fill out a party. Dual classing or Multiclassing could fill the holes in the party. Imoen=Thief/Mage, Monteron is already a fighter/thief I believe, and the character himself could be one as well. Healing potions could replace clerics and druids. Also having multiple thieves would allow you to specialize the thieving abilities and spread the duties around the party. For example you could have a lockpicking thief, a trap detecting thief, and a pickpocketing thief (after all how many of us really put THAT many skill points towards picking pockets when we only have one thief in the party? Gear could be common to all and the ranged attack of such a group would be ferocious. Trouble with the bosses could be bad but think of how long Daveron would dimension door around his quarters if he was backstabbed every time he apperated? (Sorry for the Harry Potterism but couldn't figure out another right word.)

Anyway I leave it before you my esteemed colleagues of the forum to help me figure this out and whether or not it is worth the effort.
