Pretty much any party could work, provided that you are creative enough to cook up effective strategies. My personal favorite party started out with these proficiencies:
Dwarven Fighter - **Axes, **Flails
Human Paladin - **Great Swords, **Crossbows
Halfling Cleric - *Maces, *Slings
Half-Elven Druid - *Large Swords, *Daggers
Half-Elven Conjurer - *Quarter Staves
Elven Mage/Thief - *Short Swords, *Bows
This may not look like much at first glance, lots of people say that it contains too little raw fighting power, but believe me: they can kick some serious butt. Two warriors, backed by a good deal of divine/arcane magic is really all you need IMO.
