In this third installment of OSR October, Joe reinvents Rangers and Paladins using a minimalist approach. These "new" classes are ready for OD&D, Holmes, B/X, BECMI, and all your favorite retro-clones. Join us as we explore these classic character classes in a whole new light.

Joe's streamlined system accommodates either humans or as the "race as class" concept for these two fighter variants.
