The challenges you will run into with XP are documented in the Tech Tips thread. Review that prior to playing, apply the suggested fixes and changes, and you should be set.
As for choices within the game, the vast majority of good weapons are swords. Daggers come in second, with staves, axes, and maces a distant, distant third. Nothing else really matters.
