Your starting lineup is kind of short in three areas: Wizard, Thief, and Druid. Adding Sola will bolster your Mage skills, and you don't actually need any more Thief than Imoen, but Insect Plague is such a damn good spell that it's worth dragging a Druid along, just for that. So you might want to swap Jaheira in for Valygar, or play a (part) Druid yourself.

Mazzy is the best archer in the game (other than an actual Archer or Generic Archer, of course), and she's also the 2nd-best Tank, thanks to her ability to wear Full Plate and her awesome Halfling Warrior Saving Throws.
