I can't figure the best way to poison a group of units using a dummy caster. I tried poison sting and it didn't work. Is it because poison sting can only be used on a single target and not on a unit group? If not, is there another spell to do it?

Well.... Why not create a dummy for each unit around and order them to attack once?
