During July 2013, Lenard Lakofa, the original Leomund, found my web page and spotted my posted copy of the Archer / Archer-Ranger character class. He contacted me by email regarding the post and discussed the idea of a character class rewrite / redesign. It has been my pleasure to contribute thoughts and ideas to his efforts to reimagine this class, originally intended as an NPC class but one I had been allowing in my game as a Player class for many years. As per Len's intentions, if you are currently employing the "Classic" version in your campaign this is NOT intended as a replacement to the original material . Rather this is for use as an addition to 1st ed. AD&D. Classic Archer / Archer-Rangers can be used as originally published and the new material can be used as presented here.

Len has plans to publish this material in other sources but was kind enough to grant me permission to post it on this web site and make it available to any and all that would want access to it. Below are links to both an HTML web version and a downloadable MS-Word Doc.
