My large group generally contians the following four guys:

A Paladin
A Fighter
A Mage/Thief (I dont feel the need for a pure class Thief)
A Druid or Fighter/Druid

I then usually add on characters to this that differ by game. It generally comes out to be one is some sort of fighter (F, F/C, R/C etc) and one is some sort of magic slinger (C, M, B, C/M). Ofcorse sometimes those slots are empty.

This group has all the things that a sucessful IWD party needs. Tanks, a Druid, and a Thief.

Lord Brass is right Druids and Bards are great. I would personally say that the Druid is more powerful, but I've been devolping a tendency to play smaller (3 or 4) person parties, and the Bard's skills are better for large party, so my opinion may be skewed a little.
