Shar Teel can be bloody good with a bow.
Monty would be the best choice for a thief, as he is part fighter, and with a high dex, is very good with ranged weapons. I would take Xzar as a mage, because Edwin isn't better than Xzar by a great enough margin to justify killing Xzar deliberately (which would be very cheesy indeed).
Viconia is good with a sling, since she has a high dex.
Kagain is a must for an evil party. Give him the Gauntlets of dexterity, and he will have god-like AC, in addition to regenerating and he will be great with a throwing axe.
You've got two fighters, a fighter thief, a cleric and a mage. I won't advise you on what sort of PC to take, since it's best to choose a class based on fun, since you are, after all, playing to enjoy yourself.
If I was playing with the above list of NPCs, I would take a fighter/mage, unless I intended to import to BG2 and play an all evil party, in which case I would take a thief with good str, con and dex(obviously) to be given the assassin kit when imported.
