That could work. Crom to Anomen, then?

... If I give him the gauntlets and a shield (Sentinel +5), he could match my Cavalier's AC just using the FoA. This makes two tanks with low AC. Your thoughts on that?

I tend to prefer more offensive-oriented tanks, so I would give Crom to Anomen - but if AC is what you're after than by all means, use Sentinal +4. That's just as good.

I notice no one seems to talk about the Axe of the Unyielding much. It also helps with the warp speed regeneration you were talking about (3 points a round), and the off-chance of vorpalling your opponent is quite nice. Does anyone ever use that weapon?

The Axe of the Unyielding is mighty - definitely one the best weapons in the game. It pairs wonderfully with Korgan, for example. However, since Axes aren't so popular (The gap between Frostreaver & Stonefire to AotU & K'log is just too big), the AotU doesn't come up often in debates. But it's powerful, no doubt.
Interesting fact: Unyielding's vorpal effect has an undocumented save, vs. death at -4.
