I'm happy about the 8.25 version, but there is a couple of things that I think is unbalanced and could be changed.
TROOP COMMAND: It's a very strong item. Personally I think it should cost at least 2600-2700 gold. In 8.21 the spawned creeps got stronger, but nothing was done with troop command. The factory increased in cost in 8.22. In 8.24 the factory does even cost 5 food. The troop command doesn't cost food.
HEALING DRONES: Those healing drones released from air ship is still quite devastating. If there a lot of creeps, drones are kept busy and you wouldn't so easily see that they are deadly, but if the airship faces a enemy tank alone, you will notice how quick they kill the tank with help of the healing drones. ALSO the drones does heal the airship a lot. It feels like a simple copy of crypt lords locust swarm. Heals the air ship... -.- nurf nurf... even if it's nerfed in 8.24, it still HEALS the airship and does great damage.
HANDICAP COMMAND TINKER TOWER HEALING ABUSE: "-handicap 10" This command can be used to increase the regeneration of tinker towers with 900% that has repair modules, or you simply use repair skill. However the towers only get 10% of their hp, but a skilled tinker player will only use this CHEAT when no creeps or enemy tanks are attacking the towers. Before the towers are in danger, the tinker player just type -handicap 100 to return the towers hp to 100%, and then they probably fully healed. Make it so that this doesn't affect the towers, or simply remove this command.
