trigger based damage is too low

[darwin]

I have a trigger that hits summoned units - like an area of effect purge. The text is:

Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of (Position of (Casting unit))) and do (If (((Picked unit) is Summoned) Equal to True) then do (Unit - Cause AamanianWH to damage (Picked unit), dealing 200.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal) else do (Do nothing))

It works but does less than the 200 damage to the target unit (around 160 I think). The target unit has 0 armor and normal armor type. I'm sure it's less than 200 because it doesn't kill units with 180 but brings them very low.

Can anyone think why this would be?

Well, armor has nothing to do with it. That's called magic resistance. You could change the attack type to "Chaos" instead of "Spells". "...damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Normal". Apparently the 40 damage left behind is the one they resist through their magic resistance. Chaos deals full damage, try it. If this doesn't work as well, use

• Unit - Set life of (Picked unit) to (((Life of (Picked unit)) - 200)

.

True.

But don't use "set life" because it won't identify the actual "killer" of the unit.
