Arbiter invincibility ability

[BlackDimension54]

Can someone help me?
I want to know how to make the ability of arbiter in star craft
Its when you are nearby to your allies or units they are cloaking/invincible

it's a little complicated, but doable.

1 you'd have to pick all units in an desired area around the "arbiter" unit/s
2 periodically (every second or so) make them invisible (probably without the sound/graphic effect, or you'd go insane)
3 optional sfx: create a shimmering effect (like in starcraft) in the location of affected units

i think you want to use an indexing system (like bribe's), but you might be able to pull it off with global unitgroups as well
i might give it a shot later
