Icewind Dale 2 out in stores today!

First Post
I'm quite excited, especially after the drab borefest that Neverwinter Nights turned out to be. I admit to never finishing the original IWD because of its focus on combat as opposed to role playing and adventure (like BG2) but it sounds like IWD2 will be much more diverse and fun than its predecessor. I'm very excited about creating a complete 3e party. I'll hopefully pick up my copy today and will post the good and the bad as it happens.

Got this game the other day and quite like it so far II'm not far, only at the beginning of chapter one). Here's my party, all of whom are NPCs that've appeared in my games:

Beornegar Hillman, Human Barbarian 2
Maskar, Tiefling Fighter 2*
Kaile, Tiefling Ranger 1/Druid 1 (F)*
Gren Swiftcutter, Duergar Rogue 2
Siobhan of the Wood, Wild Elf Druid 2 (F)
Gwyneth, Moon Elf Sorcerer 2 (F)

* In my backstory, Maskar & Kaile are brother and sister.

Like IWD, this looks to be pretty combat-oriented, though maybe less than the first game.
 

My party thus far (due to drunkeness, I can't recall the names)

Leader: Arseny Drundorr, male dwarf N fighter1/rogue1 with high social skills
female tiefling NE fighter 2 with 20 dex and two weapon fighting
male drow LE cleric of bane 2, good with a sword
female wild elf CN druid 2, looking forward to using her at higher levels
female half-elf LN rogue 2, the scout, friend of Arseny and very loyal
and lastly, male tiefling CE sorcerer 2, good wioth a crossbow and dark as all hell :)
having a good time with the game so fgar, even though its combat heavy
