1. When I train a unit, how can I set it so that multiple units come out of the building instead of one?
2. How can I make an item physically change a unit's appearance? For example, I've used items that give a specific unit a different sword.

Thank you kindly!

1. You will have to use a trigger that is hooked to when a unit finishes training another unit via the appropiate event. Just simply create another unit at the position of the training building. You could also use the object editor's spawn units on death and a dummy unit to make it create a dummy which near instantly dies to spawn 2 units but these will be summons and no waypoint can be used.

2. Give the item a morph ability such as metamorphisis or avatar and then use it. Alternativly use Chaos ability to morph the unit to a different type with different art but be warned this can have problems.
