Alchemists
An alchemist must be intelligent and wise but never earns an XP bonus. An alchemist is always literate and has 4 chances in 6 of identifying poisons and potions, and 2 chances in 6 of neutralising identified poisons. He suffers only half damage from any acid or fire which would cause him direct harm and adds +2 to saving throws versus wands, staves and poisons. For all this an alchemist is a non-combatant. He does not wear armour, nor have any particular mastery of any weapon. Instead, he can prepare compounds from alchemical recipes, and can memorise one wizard spell per 2 experience levels (adjusted by intelligence) so long as no memorised spell's level exceeds half his own (or 1, whichever is greater).
An alchemist begins with as many recipes as his chance in 6 due to intelligence + adjustment due to wisdom. He will unlock the secrets of one new recipe with each experience level gained.

Marksmen
A marksman is a professional shooter or missile-Man. He must be strong and dexterous, but does not earn any experience bonus. A marksman adds +2 to saving throws that require great fortitude as a fighter, though his HD advancement is as per the ranger (see http://odd74.proboards.com/index.cgi?ac ... ge=1#46430here).
The marksman has the use of all arms and all armour as does a regular fighter, but does not add damage to melee attacks, nor make multiple attacks per round in melee combat.
Instead he can shoot accurately or quickly with his favoured type of missile weapon, which he must choose at 1st level. In any round of shooting a marksman may choose to either shoot accurately -- adding +1 to hit per 2 experience levels, or else shoot quickly -- increasing his rate of fire as follows:
ExperienceLevel12-34-56-78-9Crossbow*1/23/415/43/2Bow**13/225/23
