I'd recommend maxing out speed first (besides strength). speed influences the number of attakcs and swings, improves initiative and improves AC. plus, both strength and speed give access to very useful expert skills.
besides, either lizardmen or dracons start with a very good vitality score and so it doesn't make that big a difference in amount of HP between say, 75 and 100 vitality.

oh, and btw, fighters don't get critical hits, except with some weapons that have a kill %. but that's a fixed % and is not influenced by your stats.
