Since I've decided to put an ability system in my special forces map (:massimo: I KNOW!), what would be the best, and easiest way to place timed spells/abilities for each unit?

If you want a brainstorming session, I'd suggest posting in the SC1 Production section, as this section normally handles solving problems you may be having.

The way I normally see spells implemented is from creating a unit from a building like a Stargate or something.

I appreciate the answer to the first part. I'll take out the second part and post in the other section. Thanks Roy!

There's an oddly-named and incomplete old wiki article that covers the standard ways of doing this sort of thing: Selection systems

None.

Caedo it will help alot if you gave use the niche that the unit has to fill.. e.g. harras, stealth, tank, damage dealer.

no shit sherlock. I wanted you explain what you mean with time capsule (hence the question mark!), because obviously what follows makes no sense. For someone so intelligent you can be quite daft at times...
