VoP Ranger idea, your thoughts?

[Doodleface]

If you take the wildshape variant for rangers (in UA) it might make VoP a good choice for the same reason that it isn't a bad choice for Druids. You could easily qualify for the Warshaper PrC, and Master of Many Forms would be accessible too.

Any thoughts?

Same as always....you'll be weaker than if you had WBL, but stronger than a non-Wildshaping/Incarnum-using character with VoP. As in, not totally crippled.
