Notes: Level changes occur
after a save has gone up.  BAB stacks. Ability scores are
complementary to both classes.  Option to put stat bonuses into
strength instead of dexterity, allowing improved two handed
fighting.  Possibly additional feat available, because (I have not
had a chance to confirm) rapid shot is granted feat for ranger at level
2.
