Events--unit enters region
conditions--unit is crypt fiend
actions--create special effect(bloodlust) attached to the feet of triggereing units.

hmmm cool i think i know what ill do ill make the whole map 1 region then if the unit specified enters / is built then they will have the special effects! oh yeah and i think ye'll like it it's gonna be a melee but ill try to addon some stuff change all the units and make 1 hero completely different for each race thats all the tips im giving on it

I dunno if u understand them but a variable would work, personally they confuse the heck outta me but im sure the region trigger would work

look people i have seen to many maps with a region called MAP that covers the whole map, and it is annoying, there is a magic little thing called {entire map} look---

Melee Initialization
- |> Events
Unit-A unit enters (entire map)
Conditions-
-Actions
Special Effect - Create the illusion of Bloodlust with that spells Target model attached to (Trained unit) on it's origin*


(you can change Target model to any thing)
(you can change (trained unit) to anything that fits)
*i did this trying to make it as understand able as possible, something in here might not work for all maps and i was using USMWE 3.6 so if you do this in original then it might not work)

Woha, i should do a little totorial on odd tricks, like this one. On the layer Doodads if you select a doodad you want to put in your map, but you cant seem to get the angle right then you can hit Z and it will rotate the Doodad, also X is a nifty little tool for camera's aswell as Ctrl-Shift-C (resets the camera to what it is in the game. i hope that answers your little Q's mappers, have fun makeing more maps!

P.S. this is a cool map that i would like to see hosted more... it is cool:D i got inspired to map by using this little guys map...( a movie making contest)
