Got bauldurs Gate but not sure what kind of character to make. I prefer melee charcaters that have access to some spells or skills any class that would work for this ? Also if so what should there base stats look like?

You'd be better off asking this in the Baldur's Gate subforum.

Fighter/Mage.

17-18 STR; 18(19) DEX; 18(17) CON; 18 INT; (optionally) 18 WIS.

This is the best build for BG 2, dual-classed human or multiclassed elf each have their pros and cons.
