Cary,

DC Fighter/Druid --> Heh, heh, heh: Got re-rollers tendonitis? Looks like you got the bare minimum of points; but distributed them well!

DC Fighter/Illusionist --> Excellent choice of specialist Mage. I would let the Mage twiddle with the dagger; but load the Fighter's PPs in something that does a bit more damage: Axe or flail, perhaps? Good choice on the bow: Max it out.

Paladin --> It would be very nice to see a Dex of 18, since this gal will almost certainly see lots of front line duty. Excellent choice of weapon specialty (you won't be sorry)!

Your other characters look great. (Even with the Pally and Bard along, you will find that your Cleric is essential.) I personally would have shorted several of the characters elsewhere in order to pump DEX, but that is just my taste.

As far as I can see, you look to be in good shape for all your DCs. But here is a bit of advice: As soon as your characters level once, save the game and then DC all of them to the classes you have planned. Then quit without saving and revert back to your saved game. A successful test here assures you that you will have successful DCs at Fighter 9 (or whatever). If you discover a mistake, you can rectify it with very little lost investment.

In order to get all those DC characters packed in next to the Bard and Pally, you've left yourself without a party member with infravision. I think that is an acceptable trade: Just want you to realize that you are doing it.

I hope you intend to let your Fighters get to at least CLVL 7 before DCing to Thief and Illusionist. (Though this might mean tough going in the early game.) and I hope you intend to let the rest get to at least Fighter 9 before DCing. If you do all this, and have your Fighters and Pally stack PPs in exactly one ranged and one non-ranged weapon --> With a Bard and 5 "Fighters" your party -WILL- **ROCK** the house when the Bard hits CLVL 11 !! Enjoy!!!
