I did quite a bit of research prior to making my purchase, so I'll add to what I think about this.
The 6 person has a half nest option which means technically it could sleep 3, although I bet it would be tight, particularly if you have more than 2 people, gear, and a stove. That being said, from what I've seen/heard you should be able to use a nest and stove together.
The nest will be your best protection from insects/ground etc. A liner will be best to handle condensation. I live in the Pacific Northwest and just went with a half liner. This just creates a double wall essentially allowing you to sleep drip free. A stove should also help with condensation. If you want full protection, purchasing 2 half liners would then cover your whole tent.
