Well, everyone has their own style. I tend to focus all of my best defensive gear on a single Tank, and make sure all of my other Warriors have an AC that is, at least, decent. Your Marching Formation is important, too: I like to use the pentagon formation: It puts a single Tank in front, two Backup Tanks covering the flanks, two Thieves/Spellcasters in back, and the center spot could fall to
any role: It's protected enough to be a Wizard, yet positioned forward enough to be a substitute Tank. Continuing with this example, one of my current games has the following setup:
Center Position: Mazzy. Gesen Bow, Short Sword of Arvoreen. AC of -8.
Point Position: Kyrenia, a Ranger/Cleric. FoA, DoE, Sentinel Shield. Permanent AC of -18, with buffs -26. (some Weimer items)
Left Flank: Valygar. Daystar+4, CFury+5, Belm. AC of -8.
Right Flank: Keldorn. Carsomyr, Light Crossbow of Speed. AC of -8.
Left Underbelly: Kelsey. Staff of the Magi, Sling of Everard. AC of -3.
Right Underbelly: Imoen. Short Sword of Backstabbing, Tuigan Bow. AC of -4.

And Archers WILL hit you, and Kensai WILL hit you. Also, if this is ToB we're talking here, where all of the enemy Warriors are Level 18 and up, then all Warriors will hit you at least 1/3rd of the time, as well.
