Just started playing IWD again after a few months off, I was getting frustrated with LDD and started NWN, which now doesn't work after upgrading to XP(but that is for another forum). After learning it is better to start HOW/ToTL and then return to IWD, I started in Lonelywood and got as far as stepping onto Burial Isle? and engaging the first group of nasties. Scouting that island and seeing the forces against me prompted me to start into ToTL. Cleared the first area fine then decided to rest up in Stubby's house. Left his house turned the corner, rut ro reorge!

At this point I want to finish IWD so I can move to IWDII or back to NWN if I get it running. I would like to know the least frustrating way from my three saved games. First my party stats:

Class IWD|HOW
Ranger 11|12
Fighter 11|12
Cleric 11|12
Thief 13|14
Mage 11|12
Cler/Mage 10/9|11/11

IWD Save: In LDD just cleared Ilmaiden and her fire giants to get my fourth badge Have made forays into most of the areas to test defenses.

HOW Save: On Burial Isle, cleared wights and shamen from landing point thinking of going back to get special undead killing weaponry and returning.

TOTL save: Rested in Stubby's house and went outside to harpy heaven?

Which save would be the easiest\less frustrating to continue. I'm leaning toward the HOW save after getting those toys. Thanks for any imput.
