arrow trap

[Spectre4802]

essentially, what I want to happen is a unit enters a region (a thin region). When it does, an arrow will fly in a straight path along that region.

It doesn't attack the unit - it just flies along the path. if it collides with the unit, then yes, the unit will take damage.

(It can be any projectile really, it's just arrows is what I have in mind.)

Question is, can I do it? If so, how?

You can base an ability in shockwave and edit it's art. Then just tell a dummy to cast it.

you could also make a dummy with the model of an arrow, set the collision size to 0 and make a trigger saying:
Event: Unit comes within 100 of *Dummy/Arrow*
Action: Set life of triggering unit to (life of triggering unit) - *Amount of damage dealt here*
