Simple Trigger Not Working?

Hey guys,

Having some trouble with a Turn Based map.

When a player is attacking with a unit, the other player has the opportunity to "Block" that unit with one of his units. (Think of Magic the Gathering)

I have a trigger later on that deals damage to both the Blocker, and the Attacker (BlockTarget).

Now for some reason it is not working, I have tried different things and it seems this trigger below is not properly storing the units. (Both the attacker/blocker are stored with the same ID as a pair)

Any ideas? I really don't know why it isn't working, could a possible memory leak or bug cause other triggers to bug?

Trigger:

Unit - A Unit Begins Casting An Ability

(Ability being cast) Equal to Block

Set BLOCKER(ID) = (Casting Unit)

Set BLOCKERTARGET(ID) = (Target Unit of Ability Being Cast)

Wait 0.01 Seconds

Set ID = (ID + 1)

TKF	If the block ability is an passive ability the triggers won't help at all. Triggers only detect an ability which is being used actively.

muse1988	Block is based on lightning shield. The only thing I can think of is my map is bugged or there is a leak somewhere causing this trigger to forget what units have been stored
