Newbie team. Hmmmm.... 15 regular games (through Arnika) and now on Ironman III (don't ask about I & II...).

1. Valkyrie. The Cheat Death will help you a time or two...
The polearms will help you with being flanked more than missile
weapons will. No shield, otherwise, she has GREAT armor.

2. Monk. Just go hand-to-hand. Don't worry about melee weapons.
Improve speed & dexterity & senses.

3. Ninja. Missile, stealth & mace & flail are your biggest work-to
areas. Don't forget criticals.

4. Bard. Music & theivery skills.

5. Priest. Choose a race that'll allow you to dual class to Bishop
reasonably early, either through allocating points at creation,
or needing few points after.

6. Alchemist. Can't be silenced. More hit points than a mage.
Can also heal in a pinch. Can later dual to a mage quite easily.
Or, if you chose your race correctly, can be a bishop, as well.
