Stacking Archons?

I took a look at a map by Loveless that shows how to stack units by the use of sprites and changing their properties.
I've tried several different units that have worked, but Archons do not seem to stack.

I have tried checking/unchecking just a few different properties. All the other units I've tried, that worked, used Blocks view??, Flag 10, Two states??, and Disabled??

Would an Archon need a different set of boxes checked, or does it just not stack? Also, does anyone know what flags 2,3,4,6,7,10,11,12, and 15 do?



None.

In my experiences, I've only been able to get a few units to stack...

Disabled and Draw as Sprite are the only used flags.

Archons crash when placed as a disabled sprite, as you can see here. Even if they don't crash when placed, many units just crash when enabled, it's a pretty unstable system, and I've found that it varies slightly from map to map, what it comes down to is just testing it out and seeing what works for you.



None.

NudeRaider -- I bet it just needs another training session against pros instead of only against itself and nobody will be able to stop it anymore.

so it can be beaten by a prepared pro, even in macro games, if only barely. the muta micro in particular seems really hard to handle for protoss ground though. In the open goons can't catch them, in the base they trip over buildings, it just instantly flies out of storms and they fly circles around archons. Mass cannons do work, but can't cover the whole map with it. Probably need mass corsair to counter and hope you can outmaneuver all the scourge.
