The model (sanctuary) for the buff will not appear

the spell is based on Defend, ive put the model in all sorts of places...

do tell me that i needn't resort to dummys and stealth abilities...

What model are you trying to use?

Perhaps a different attachment point, or reduce the spell detail to low

@Pyro: The Sanctuary model, its a yellow shield (sphere orb whatever it is)

if it doesn't work use a dummy ability and 2 triggers

Tough luck, defend doesn't use a buff or anything like that. The best you can do is create a special effect on the unit when it's ordered to defend, attach it to the unit and when a unit is ordered to undefend get the attached effect (if it has any, sometimes undefend orders are issued when a unit dies/decays regardless of whether it was defending) and destroy and unattach it. You could also use a passive ability to display the effect, that saves you the trouble of attaching the effect to the unit.

Something like "unit given order = ((undefend))"

No.

Trigger:
((Issued order) Equal to (Order(unimmolation))) or ((Issued order) Equal to (Order(immolation)))

It's a Condition.
