Stats mostly depend on the difficulty level that thee chooses.

Your characters blood will be painting the cave walls if they are too low in Heart of Fury (HoF) mode!

Here is how I look at a pure Fighter's strength for example:

Easy: 14-15
Normal: 16-17
Hard: 18/01-18/51
Insane: 18/76-18/99
HoF: 18/00

Any more would make you less reliant on strategy and any less would make it a pain to get through some of the areas of the game. The one other factor would be character building. You may need stronger characters [guards--basically] if you want to create more powerful (DC or MC) characters for the later game.

Note that with low strengths it will be a pain in the behind to gather up and carry all the goodies you encounter! Looking at the Easy mode; you will be desperate to come across some of that lightweight magical armor.
