I'd like any opinions or advice on how my party is set up. Criticism, constructive or otherwise, is just as welcome as helpful hints LOL!

The party goes like this. Three rows of two people. D'rin Zar (my character) a fallen cavalier with shield and sword, and Minsc with a hammer and sword at the front. Bashy bashy, hit the other guys with big sticks. Next is Mazzy, with a short sword and shield, who runs into battle also. I'd have it as two rows of three except that's too broad a formation for a narrow path/ dungeon etc. Beside Mazzy is Yoshimo, who does the thiefy theify stuff, and shoots a short bow (I know, I know...

The last row of the party consists of Viconia, with a sling (I think), who does all the healer-ish stuff, and gets any wands I find/ buy, and Aerie, who is my mage, and has a sling.

Viconia causes ALL sorts of problems, cos she's so evil... I do have two problems with this formation though. 1) When I charge forward into battle, and get surprized by attacks from the rear, the last row of my party gets battered before I can do anything much about it. I was thinking that Jaheira would be better than Viconia, as she is mroe suited to melee fighting (and she's not so evil). 2) My character orignally had his points put into 'two weapon style', and I wanted to fight with two swords, or a sword hammer combo. I got a shield that is too good to lose, so I'm fighting with a sword and shield, despite not having points in that style. Against Bodhi, my main cahracter (who is very fast), ran in by himself and got level drained four times before he so much as took his sword out of his scabbard.
