Custom Battle.net games might hang if the host is reachable but the port is blocked (eg. firewalled), probably due to different TCP timeout on Windows. Only know fix right now is to kill Warcraft (wait for the timeout can take a few dozen minutes so its faster to restart Warcraft).
Battle.net web profiles will kill Warcraft. On Windows they start the Explorer, but this does not seem to work at least on my machine.(Note: This will kill Warcraft 3 on all distros except SuSE 9.0+. Not sure why this is, also if using Gnome 2.4 plus you can use the ALT + TAB to switch back to Warcraft. While in the game you can use the ALT + ESC combo to switch to the desktop. If Internet Explorer is installed using Wine it will load the Battle.Net Profile. Installing the Mozilla ActiveX Control might also help.)
There are some reported issues on certain systems, if fixes are not on this page, try this pageand please update the WIKI.
If you set the antialiasing higher than "4x, 9-tap Gaussian" with nvidia-settings program, the game will suffer from font issues like random missing letters.
In order to be able to play TCP/IP games over a LAN, use the help described at the bottom of this page.
Demo tends to crash if the -opengl is not set, and may have display errors with it set.

To improve performance and stability on certain systems, try starting using the following command:

  cedega Warcraft\ III.exe -opengl

The game works with WineX 3.1, but it has problems with displaying the splash screen so it will stay on-screen the whole time.
A personal note (by User:Volker), Waaagh!TV (Multi-user watching) is natively available for Linux and we would like some feedback on the client software.

If using Cedega 5.1.1 or higher, use the Battle.Net to update your game. Works flawlessly. If you receive a message like "cd-rom not found" when the game is restarting, you just need to click "ok" for the game to exit and then start it using Cedega as usual.
