what do you mean, "create"? Do you mean he has a spell that's summoning one and you want to summon more? Do you mean that you're creating a pikeman through triggers and you want to create more? Do you mean when you train a pikeman in a barracks or some other building you want it to pump out 6 instead of one?

because of the way i want my map to work, you train a captain of a group of men. Ie pikemaster>pikemen. I need a trigger that creates X amount of guys when thier captain is created.

Event:

Player Owned Unit Event--> A unit owned by (Player X) finishes training a unit

Conditions:

Unit Type comparison--> Unit type of (trained unit) = (whatever you want in this case pike master)

Actions:

Whatever you want, in this case maybe make a region next to the building (barracks) that builds the pike masters, and have

Action-->Unit Create (facing an angle)--> Create (6) (Pikemen) In Random Points in (your region) facing blah degrees, or something like that

P.S. another event that might work is "Unit Enters Region--> playable map area" then do a unit type comparison.

If you want your created units (the pikemen) to be clustered around the pikemaster, you could create a region around the pikemaster and then have them pop up in that region
