Armageddon, if you're going to cheat (nothing wrong with that) make it easier and less time consuming for yourself and get Gatekeeper (BG1) or Shadowkeeper (BG2). Saves you having to duplicate tomes and tediously raising all your stats. Oh, if you want to cheat but not make yourself have godlike attributes, a good way to do it is to increase the number of attacks you have per round. That's why Drizzt is lethal, he has 5 attacks per round. Even if you only do an average of 10 points of damage you only need to hit an ogre 3 times to kill it in the first round of battle.
Raistlin, in a word, no. There are no tomes in BG2. There are potions that temporarily increase your intelligence so you can scribe spells while under their influence, but seeing as intelligence is a prime requisite for mages you might find the going a bit tough.
