Nice idea, and Welcome to IW [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]
Are you going though HoW and TotLM too, or just normal IWD?
I would say that with a lack of offensive magic, you should get mucho priestly power to compensate. With a six person party, I would keep your 5 guys, and add another fighter/cleric. If a dwarf can be a bard, then that is a much better choice.
This gives you:
1. A main tank heavy hitter
2. A backup tank frontline healer/buffer
3. A silent backstabber/archer, combat techtician, loremaster
4. An archer/backup tank
5. Another backup tank, your main priest for offensive spells and summons.
6. Yet another backup tank, though unlike #2 focuses on offensive magic.
6b. An arcane caster, though main duty is singing the war chant.
This gives you 6 (!) battle hardened dwarves, possibly a bard to buff them, 3 priests to specialize in buffing, healing, summoning, or blasting as you see fit, 2 archers, and a thief. Happy hunting!
