You'll be ok as long as you're a good player and you work on putting together a friends list of people who like to have you around. Melee are always "harder" as a first character because of their dependence on gear, and warriors often have issues keeping aggro off of twinked (even untwinked?) DPSers even with good gear, but if you go into your warrior knowing that and intent on doing your best to work well as a tank in spite of it... you'll be fine.
I mean, even though melee are rougher untwinked than casters are, there is quite an abundance of low-end gear out there that people give away or sell for cheap. Check out the wiki for camps that you'll be able to solo and that can make you some pp, don't be afraid to kill stuff that doesn't give you xp in order to make some money if you have your eye on some gear, etc.
