Hi,
this one took a little bit longer than usual, because of my limited free time, but I hope you enjoy the new version.
Update
Rune Carving is still not working perfectly, but it shouldn't be abusable at least.
v 8.54b- Fixed some Hunter-related bugs, including the crash bug
- Fixed an abusable Rune Carving (Scout) bug
v 8.54 - New tank: Hunter
- New blue print: Strength Pack
- Removed the GiveUp-dialog and added a chat-command instead
- Improved the kick-command a little bit
- Reduced cooldown, mana cost of Jet Wave (Demolisher) and sligthly increased the area

You forgot to fix the rune carving bug. (If you cancel the action, the rune still appears)

You are right, I just saw it when uploading the new version. Well, this happens when bugs are reported in the announcement thread, instead of the bug section.

I LOVE The new tank. Heres a few things though
All his spells damage teammates and himself.
WAYYY unbalanced on hb
As for the version, I'm not sure if this is a bug with this new version or just the internet itself, but I was playing a game (my first with .54) and randomly it server split. Not only that, but it totally shut down warcraft...
Not sure if the game is to blame or the version...

i actually just had the exact same thing happen. i was only the 2nd game of 8.54 that i've hosted.
everything was fine...until warcraft3 totally exited out; no crash, bug or any warning. wasn't doing a spell or anything.
my friend that was in the game with me as the same time had the same thing happen.
i figured it was a bug in the map since my friend and i had the exact same thing happen at the same time.

played my first game of .54 just now and same thing happend. war3 just dissappeared sometime after the 20 or 30 minute mark. there was a hunter in it and the noob started a custome game at 5k. gay.
also do non force troops now give higher bounty? i was playing an hb game and i could swear that the player troops generated from player built factories gave as much gold as regular troops.

Player built factories should give the same gold. Its the item troop command that doesn't give alot of gold per kill.

Good version, really nice work, Good job Exodus 
Except.... The Hunter tank has not a single skill which can be clicked at a unit, all are large click area's... I don"t know or so, but maybe change the (Q) skill to target a unit? And put the range in the description, cuz it's really annoying, i get the feeling its like a demolisher but bigger and other skills...
It's just a remark, for the rest all is fine, what do u think of this?

This is part of the concept of this tank and I really like it.

If people don't have to aim, and evaluate the max distance in roder to get the max damage; it would be to easy and the skill would be imba ^^

If you have more than 0.5 sec delay, never buy Hunter or you will be oversupressed. Because all abilities require aiming.

I just hosted a game of 8.54b, with -lai acticated. After some time all players on the other team were AI (due to leavers). After 50 minutes and 45 seconds the game just quit :S
I'm not sure what happened just in that moment..
edit: I like the Hunter tank
