What do you want to be? I mean choosing Mage signs and races will not make you a great fighter.

When you say trades, do you mean you want to be good at all skills, or all combat techniques?

Skills:
Alchemy
Athletics
Acrobatics
Armorer, etc.

Combat techniques:
Blocking
Light Armor / Heavy Armor
Hand to Hand
Blade
Marksmanship
Magic: Destruction/Illusion/Restoration/Alteration, etc.

It all depends on how you want to play.  If all you like to do is hack and slash, choose someone with strength.

If you want to be the most well rounded, choose a battlemage.

What you are asking is all relative to each person.  What may be fun to you, may not be fun to me.  Understand?

How about just asking what each person chose and why they liked it?  Maybe that will help you decide.

I chose a Dark Elf Battlemage.  Comes with a resistance to fire, +50 magicka, and no weaknesses.

I chose this because I knew I could go in hot and heavy if I need to, and I could use magic when necessary.  (magic is soooo important to this game).  With magic, you can get any of the skills and attributes the other races have.

I chose a Wood Elf Agent. The wood elf gets 75% immunity to disease which is an utterly worthless ability because there isn't really any diseases in the game.

Overall this class is a bit hard to play as there is only one primary skill which is combat oriented. So as I raise in level through the other primary skills, it means that the bad guys get much tougher than I actually am.

I probably want to try a mage next time through.

High Elf
Magic
Atronach
Endurance
Luck
Blade
Heavy Armor
Destruction
Conjuration
Restoration
Illusion
Mysticism

You won't regain Mana automatically.  You will need people (or summons!) to cast spells at you and you can absorb them.  Once you add a few constant effect items you will have 100% magic absorbtion and a ton of mana.
