Actually, further thought and your guys' insight has led me to want to play the following:

PC Sorceror
Edwin
Viconia
Yoshimo (switch to Imoen)

I wouldn't want a full party of 6. I figure that 4 (5 at most) would be more streamlined and easier to manage since I couldn't just give them all scripts to behave (like fighters). I don't think I wanna include Aerie (especially after I get Imoen for a general/backup mage) she just seems to be the odd man out. I would miss Aerie's ability to cast cleric spells in sequencers, though.

After Imoen, I figure that I can get by without Yoshimo since the biggest thing I'd need a thief for for this party would be traps & locks and I hear that she can manage. I don't think I need Backstabbing for this party but I'm not very good at performing it anyhow. Also, is there anyone good to pickpocket besides Togerias & Ribald? Not having anyone around to steal things from stores will make things more difficult but I can try to capitalize on Yoshimo while I have him.

Before Imoen, I figure that Yoshimo can play bodyguard in a pinch so I don't need Korgan/Keldorn/Minsc. After Imoen, well, I would hope that my magic users would be powerful enough to not need a bodyguard.

What do you guys think? Is there error in my logic?
