• Attack
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Owner of (Casting unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Ability being cast) Equal to Attack (Z)
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Casting_Unit_Loc[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))] = ((Position of (Casting unit)) offset by 100.00 towards (Facing of (Casting unit)) degrees)
        • Set Hit_Group[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))] = (Units within 100.00 of Casting_Unit_Loc[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))] matching (((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Casting unit))) Equal to True))
        • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Hit_Group[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))] and do (Unit - Cause (Casting unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing (100.00 + ((Real((Strength of (Casting unit) (Include bonuses)))) x 2.50)) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal)
        • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Hit_Group[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))] and do (Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Picked unit) using Abilities\Spells\Other\Stampede\StampedeMissileDeath.mdl)
        • Custom script: call DestroyGroup( udg_Hit_Group[GetConvertedPlayerId(GetOwningPlayer(GetSpellAbilityUnit()))] )
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_Casting_Unit_Loc[GetConvertedPlayerId(GetOwningPlayer(GetSpellAbilityUnit()))] )
        • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
      • Else - Actions

this works for one player, based spell is tount/channel/summon a spell with no target, make an animation name for attack
