Well, this is not such a simple question. The first thing that comes to my mind is the Samurai. He is essentially a Swordsman.
My current Samurai is a decent shot with a Bow but get in close with Demonbane and a Wakizashi and we're talking major damage! And the lightning strike sure doesn't happen with ranged attacks. Also Monks with HtH.
I think that close combat certainly has its merits. You should be sure to put those people in the front position of your formation, and put the Valkyries (maybe 2 with Vi!) on the sides with spears. I have found this very effective.
But sometimes you just gotta charge. I notice that certain baddies with spitting and stinger ranged attacks do not advance to you. I just can't stand to waste the arrows and stones that it takes to eliminate then in 12 rounds from afar. I say charge and be done with it in 3 rounds.
Good Luck
