New player question

[szenhidrat]

Hi!

I'm completely new to this game and need help with class selection. I read every thread about the classes in the forum but i still can't decide. Here is what i learned about the classes.

Warrior: biggest army but worst magic

Paladin: resurrection scroll(dunno what's the big deal i read everybody can learn it), more runes

Mage: powerful spells but weakest army.

So every class has it's own strength and weakness. I read a lot of people have started over and over again to find the best suited class but i don't want to spend most of the time to level up a character just to dump it and start with another one just because it's too hard for an unexperienced player.

So waht's your suggestion?
Which class should i pick on first walkthrough?

/oh and sorry about my bad english/
