Okay lads, its taken me 3 weeks and 598 revisions, but the next version of ROTG is finally ready and in all honestly, its the best one ever.
It also works on Warcraft Version 1.24 and is available off the downloads page now!

Specially revamped for the average Bnet player this version greatly improves the quality of bnet games and is gernally a lot easier and more playable.

A changelog of the main features has been posted under change log, but is repeated below for convience.
Comments are welcome!

Two brand new heroes have been added! The Dwarf Engineer and the Wraith!

The number of repicks each player has can now be set by the host.
The amount of resources players begin with can be set by the host. (Still scaled by game mode)
Starting resources have been adjusted at all levels.
A quickstart option has been added which will spawn heroes at level 5 instead of 1 if enabled.
A quickstart button has been added which launches the game with typical settings.
Brand new menu system for players & referees that is used to access all game commands activated by
typing "-commands" or "z"
The menu is different depending on the game mode, if options are enabled or not and if the player
is a referee or not.
A special effect will appear over heroes in the menu so everyone can see if your "afk" or not.

All creeps have been adjusted slightly in HP/powers and more to become easier to defeat.
