Is the 3.5e Ranger yours?

Hmmm. No option for "No way in hell, I'd rather play a commonner with a stick.?"

That falls into the general "No" category...

I think spellcasting in the magic heavy typical D&D is no big matter... if you look at the puny ranger spells.

I see the problem with TWF as one of the major flaws with the combat system: TWF twinks are supposed to be mobile and lightly armoured... something the combat system doesn't support as all. Best two-weapon fighters are heavily armoured and rooted in front of the spellcasters, the mobile dudes wield greatswords and tumble/spring attack into flanking position for sneak attacks

So yes, I like the ranger as it is (with a little bit more choice for the feats, perhaps?)

I would also give Rangers high Will saves, instead of Reflex, to set them off from Rogues. The most important asset to wilderness survival is often the will to survive!

Will saves won't do you any good in the wilderness, though. If you want a high willpower, just increase your wis score (and get survival ranks). In the wilderness you need fort to overcome poisons and deceases, and ref to avoid all kinds of trapfalls.
