Tactics like that make me wonder about the efficiency of an all-stealth party. Would look something like this:
Ranger
Ranger
Fighter/Thief
Fighter/Thief
Mage/Thief
Cleric (or Cleric/thief if it's possible in this game, I haven't checked!)
Everyone in the party can stealth, so although they'd not be the most powerful group for an toe-to-toe brawl, they'd get in a ton of backstab damage and probably be able to take out the enemy's most efficient badass before he gets a chance to raise his weapon!
Like I said above, I'm not sure if the cleric/thief is possible in IWD, but if it isn't, the cleric would probably just use a sling, stepping in after the thieves and rangers had revealed themselves, and healing his compadres. Or hell, one could just slap platemail, a morningstar, and a large shield on him, and have him wade right into the thick of things once the others had made their move.
It's an idea!
