Locations. If you bring some unit to the archon, then make a trigger which kills the archon AND the unit. If you've seen it in alotta maps, why don't you open those up to see how they did it? That's the best way of seeing how they do it.

Code
[Place condition here.]
------------------------------
[Action]
-Center a location on the unit you want to kill.
-Create whatever amount of archons at the location.
-Kill all units at that location.
-Preserve trigger.
-Go straight to jail. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.


If you want to learn more by yourself, just screw around in a map editor and open up other maps and look at their triggers.

He probably was meaning to add a text message to it, which can be changed by you.

lol, you fixed it? nice touch up.. the first article was word vomit XD. i found enough consistency (atleast, what little there was) to be able to understand it, but much better 2nd edition.

Oh_Man -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating

NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games
