2 Clerics and a Warlock D&D party, can they survive?

Question

I am a first time DM and my first camping will start next week. The problem is that I have 3 players in the camping and 2 of them want to play as Clerics (Knowledge and Life) and the other one wants to play as a Warlock (The Fiend), so they don t have any fighters or rouges or rangers, and I really don t know if...

Unless things have changed in the last few editions, Clerics get to be pretty beefy tanks.

The answer to your question really is "Depends on what you have planned for them". It's part of the DM's job to cater the encounters in such a way that the party can survive, so long as they play intelligently. For a party like what you describe, something that is strong against magic and blunt weaponry would be very strong against them. As they level up, you'll likely start to run into problems finding good encounters where they can win without dumping all of their spells for the day into it.

There's also nothing that precludes you from letting them hire mercenary NPCs to help them, but that basically becomes you as the DM running a PC during combat (which as a new DM can be quite taxing to manage).
