I don't totally agree with the rogue having a lower AC. In my experience I always ran up dexterity for the rogue (I think it is the most important attribute for him along with speed), and when you get it up to 100 you get reflextion which helps a lot with AC problems, though stealth is an option also. I do agree with the less hit points, but he can wear some things which at least compare to the fighters armor, add to that the reflextion and stealth, which both add AC, and I don't think the rogue has an AC which could be problematic.
