"The other thing I heard is that IBL and shadows don't work together, so will this idea be doomed to failure from the start?" Where did you hear that? Have your tried Ambient Occlusion for soft shadows on your figures/props? Use an IBL Diffuse light source with AO enabled on either the light itself or the materials, but not both. AO gives soft area shadows similar to the effect you see with GI or HDRI.
