He became a "fighter" after we started using UA and then when 2E came along, and had to remain that way in to 3E as when UA came out the Ranger became a dual-wielder. He was still the same character from edition to edition, some of his descriptive keywords just changed.  If you want to play an archer character, play the class that supports the character concept regardless of whether it's called a fighter, a ranger or a jackolantern. Heck, for the vast majority of the game's history the Ranger is explicitely a specialized fighter.</blockquote>
