Indeed. Hexhammer and someone aiming for the Warpriest path would be a solid duo.
Warpriest is such a good idea, it almost feels like cheating.

Seriously, full Leader and half a Defender in one package. Wow.
However, as I look it over, the Warpriests attack powers are Wisdom-based... so perhaps a Dwarf Laser Cleric (with a shield and big hammer purely as fallback) would be a better choice? Or even (
heresy!!!) splitting stats between Strength and Wisdom?
We could get Str 16, Con 16, Dex 10, Int 8, Wis 16, Cha 13... though it pains me to lack an 18 in my attack stat, this may be the best way to go.
Let's see. We might want to use a Halberd. Pick up Dwarven Weapon Training and stand one square behind the Hexhammer.

It's at least an option... shields are good, as is plate armor.
For at-will powers, I'd choose Lance of Faith and Righteous Brand. Here's my reasoning:
- Priest's Shield is great, but it doesn't stack with Shroud of Black Steel, so it'll be useless half the time you want it. Shroud of Black Steel is a strong choice, but it does restrict your Striker's mobility. It's not like either of you are all that mobile, though.

- Sacred Flame could be valuable for its save-granting aspect, but the other half (temporary hit points) is useless. We'll look for other ways to grant extra saves instead. The fact that Lance of Faith deals slightly more damage tips the scales.
