Looks like a good party! But you may want some mage stuff, or alchemy, I'm thinking protection spells. My next party may be all martial arts and one bishop. You have good healing and, later, transport, potential. I won't say more at this time. Fighter, Lord and Rogue is good. You might want to think about the fourth.

You might consider adding a samurai. Between that and a lord, you get all the basic out of combat buffs; armorplate, magic screen, ench. blade, miss. shield, and x-ray, as well as good in-combat buffs like bless, soul shield, and element shield. The only thing you will be missing is haste, but perhaps you could switch the rogue for a bard. That virtually gives you a third caster anyways, and a bloodlust equipped bard is a very good tank. In fact, she's my main tank in my party. Just some thoughts.

Made small mistake my 4th is an alchemist not another lord.

An Alchemist still won't get you enchanted blade, missile shield or x-ray. Had to switch my Alc to a Mage for three levs to get them. A Sam has mage spells. An Alc has a good blind spell early and some other goodies, the best are higher level.
