Reveal the map for the player that owns the zombies and give them a huge acquisition range. Remember to disable them from retreating after travelling a certain distance (turn off camp guarding).

Be aware that large area acquisition range operations can be computationally expensive. It is advisable to never allow a lot of them to occur at any given time to prevent frame dropping.

Why not just make it so that a player's unit is predetermined as Player[1] in the trigger editor.

Then you split the zombie horde into however many players there are. For example, if there were 3 players in your map, just make 3 groups. When these units spawn, make them spawn in multiples of 3, so that they are even. That way you can make 3 different Unit Groups for the zombies.

Then just use the pick every unit in unit group Zombies[1] and order Picked Unit to Attack Move to location of player[1], and do so for all zombies and player groups.

This actually doesnt take much triggering and would save the lag from that other acquisition range idea o_O
