Hmmmmm.... interesting.  I had a half-giant gladiator (talk about a 
tank!), a halfling psionicist/ranger, and then a human fighter-preserver 
and fighter-druid.  I realize that other parties get more bang for the 
buck with 3 classes each, etc, but my party tore up Shattered Lands, and 
they're only limited by my stupidity in Wake.  I also had a thief with no 
other classes who I'd bring in to pick a lock or climb a wall, etc.  It 
worked really well for me, anyway.  Just a few thoughts.
