"Hyper tableau" is a sound and complete calculus for first- order clausal logic. The present paper introduces an improvement which removes the major weakness of the calculus, which is the need to (at least partially) blindly guess ground-instantiations for certain clauses. This guessing is now replaced by a unification-driven technique. The calculus is presented in detail, which includes a completeness proof. Completeness is proven by using a novel approach to extract a model from an open branch. This enables semantical redundancy criteria which are not present in related approaches.
