It can also be useful later on if you want to pick Shield Specialization (Paragon Tier) or the feat to improve your weapons critical range (epic tier).The PHB Fighter class description has the suggested secondary ability scores by weapon. Considering your skill choices, I think a good dexterity is a good idea. You could consider picking up light blades if you want to take the Rogue multiclass feat for Thievery and Sneak Attack (since you can't sneak attack with the heavy blade or axe)Of course, there are alternatives to that - for example, Quick Draw + Shortsword can give you that once per encounter sneak attack. (Another player of mine uses this trick with a Greatweapon fighter using a polearm)</blockquote>
