I'm very new to map-editing. What i'm trying to do is get a unit (Jailor Kassan) to walk over a beacon and then start saying something, via subtitles like how heroes talk in game during the actual WC3 campaign.

Does anyone know how to accomplish this with triggers.

Tutorial: Cinematics

First you need to create a region for the unit to walk into (Tool Palette > Region Palette).
Then make a trigger with the event Unit - Enters a Region
  • Unit - A unit enters Sample Region <gen>
Then add the action Cinematic - Transmission from Unit
  • Cinematic - Send transmission to (All players) from Jailor Kassan 0000 <gen> named Jailor Kassan: Play No sound and display Hello.. Modify duration: Set to 4.00 seconds and Don't wait
I've attached a file if you want to experiment with it.
