All depends on your playing style, really. My first time through
Me Paladin
Minsc
Anomen (don't care what people says, he was a big part of this party)
Yoshimo/Imoen
Jaheria
Aerie
Now I'm running an heavy magic party
Me Necromancer
Minsc
Jan
Korgan/Edwin
Aerie
Jaheria
Both are fun, different, and has their own weaknesses/Strengths. The difference in a good party and a great party is the gamer.
