Based on market research, WotC designed the default game to revolve around a party of 4 PCs. Most published modules are geared for the default game, hence, they are (at least theoretically) balanced to be completed by a party of 4 PCs.That said, the games I run have 6 players and 4 players and both run fine. I sometimes have to recook things for the larger party but that's fairly easy to do.About the monk, they look pretty tough on paper and, if they hit, they can end up doing significant damage. But you'll find that their Base Attack Bonus is a significant obstacle to competing with, say, the barbarian, once you start fighting high-level foes. The monk's a fun class to play, but it's no powerhouse and requires some consideration of tactics to play.</blockquote>
