If multiple players feel they are 'biting the bullet', it will effect the campaign directly or indirectly and the game won't be what you envisioned regardless.  It may be better to save it for another time if the players won't budge enough on their character choices.  This will mean either not playing at all or obtaining a new campaign that better fits the parties character choices.  It is indeed more work, and may delay when you begin the campaign, but you will still have your first one for another time and maybe creating a new one last minute will spark something that hadn't been realized before.</blockquote>
