Here's what I created to start:

Paladin (**Longswords and **axes so he has a ranged weapon and can use a shield)
Fighter (**Greatswords and **xbows)
Fighter to dual to cleric at Level 3 (**maces, *hammers, and *sling)
Fighter/Druid (**Staff, *scimitar, *missle (probably darts))
Mage (missle, darts)
Fighter/Thief (**Bow, **shortsword)

With the spread, I have pretty much every weapon covered except for Spears and Halberds. Furthermore, I have every class covered except for bards. The only problem with this set up, I have three people using missle weapons, and only two bowmen (I'd rather have it the other way around). Furthermore, one of my bowmen is using xbows, which has a slower rate of fire than a regular bow. Granted, I know that these things happen when trying to cover all the bases, but does anyone have any tips to improve this party? thanks.

To tell ye the truth that party seem to be quite a strong one. If I were you I'd just go ahead with it.

Well if you are trying to cover all the bases, you could replace the Fighter-Druid with a Bard, who would then use a bow or xbow. Or you could change your Fighter-Thief to a Mage-Thief instead and use the new position for a Bard which would let you keep the Druid around.

As for your weapon profs, you might want to give your Paladin some points in a blunt weapon (flail) to use on undead monsters. Otherwise, your party looks well rounded and solid. [img]smile.gif[/img]
