[Midget Gems]

Hello everyone - it's nice to be back in the 'Dale and nice to see some
familiar names hanging out here.

So let me explain the story so far.............

Some of those pocket sized super-heroes that are team "Midget Gems", heard
that IWD was a nice ski resort, so they brought along their wives and
girlfriends. But instead of a restful holiday they have been drawn into a
new and dangerous adventure. This is ok for the guys who are veteran
adventurers, but the girls only came for the shopping and the nightlife and
they are hopeless at fighting. So here's the team:

.....Guys...........................Dolls
Dwarf Fighter...................Dwarf Cleric
Gnome Fighter/Illusionist....Gnome Cleric/Illusionist
Hafling Fighter/Thief..........Half/Elf Bard **

**Why can't small people be Bards - it's not fair !

So now I need some advice. Since the girls can't/won't fight they usually
stand at the back and shout encouragement. I was wondering what interesting
tactics you can recommend for the girls, apart from collecting jewellery and
cooking the dinner. I allow them to do anything that doesn't damage the
enemy, even to the point of standing out in front to block the monsters
while the guys use ranged attacks - how sad is that ! Yet this is the same
tactic I used in BG1 for Snow White v Sarevok, so it ought to work here as
well.
So what unusual strategies can you suggest for me to try?

Ps. If I select Battle-Song, Chant and Turn-Undead is that almost as good
as a gospel choir ?
