ZFR,
1) No. Using the cheat codes will not have any adverse effects on the game.
2) It's really up to you as to where you begin in terms of xp. It IS possible to start a HoF game with level 1 characters and finish; it's not EASY but it is doable.
3) I'm not sure if a party of 6 can reach 30th level by the end of the game even in HoF mode. My current party of 6, with 2 ECL 1 characters, is now at 24th / 25th level and they just finished the Monastery (Chapter 4). They MIGHT make it, but I doubt it. This was the original group that finished on normal difficulty (level 16/17) and was exported.
Unlike IWD1, QUEST xp is NOT morphed in HoF mode in IWD2. It's exactly the same in normal difficulty as it in HoF mode.
