I have a house rule that I'm sure other folks have as well.
I don't use STR as a factor in combar for anything other than DMG bonus.
Basically it's DEX to Hit and as an AC bonus.
I use it as a way to play up the high adventure angle of a moderate magic game.
I have found that my players probaly go with a Dex of 16 or better in almost all cases because it's better to be Quick than to be Smart (or Dead).
It doesn't matter tome what sort of weapon the PC uses either. I think a person with a Great Sword has to be really good with that weapon and it compares to someone with Rapier training.
Being Stronger has never really made anyone more accurate.
