Help me get this cleric Rolling

[DDwarf]

Hi everyone
I'm new on ENW so that's my first post hope I'll get any feedback.

I'm starting a new campaign with a few friends, good old D&D medieval fantastic style. We play the god guys. We're using 3.0 and 3.5 stuff pretty much all books except for some funky new rules systems that our DM won't allow.

So what do you guys think about this cleric build I'm working on? We are running a Druid in the party as well so healing is not really the focus. This character is more about buffing, and melee action. We're starting Lvl 3 and I'm looking at a 10-12 lvl build for now. Any optimization suggestions?

FireBlood Dwarf - Neutral Good - Diety Tharmekhul (RoS) - Stats to come
Shield + warhammer style

Cleric 4 / Ordained Champion 5 / ? continuing cleric or going with other PrCs ?
Domains - Destruction + War + Obtain Fire from PrC at lvl5

Feat Lvl1 - Dragonfire Channeling (Dragon Magic)
Feat Lvl1 (flaw) -
Feat Lvl 3 -
Feat Lvl 5 - (Bonus fighter from fire domain power retrain) - Shield Specialisation
Feat Lvl 6 -
Feat Lvl 9 -
Feat Lvl 12 -

Featwise I'm looking at fire devotion (Complete Champion), destruction devotion (Complete Champion), Extra turning (to maximize the Dragonfire Channeling), Extra Smiting (Complete Warrior), Spontaneous Wounder (Complete Divine)

Let's start with this. What say you?

Welcome to ENworld!

There is a subforum for 3E stuff now, so while the general forum gets a broader range of posters, the people who probably know what you want are more likely to be able to help in the subforum.

It looks to me like you've pretty much got your character figured out. Unfortunately I know nothing about dragon magic (except the spells from Monte Cook's Book of Eldritch Might).

My one thing is make sure you get access to 9th levels spells, unless you are confident the campaign will never get that far.

Thx a lot! I'll look into this forum and repost.
