Permanent Immolation target allowed

[takethat]

which box should i check if i want the permanent immolation to target every one (include enemy and ally unit) but will not damage the owner's unit

eg:
player 1 is ally with player 2, enemy with player 3
player 1 has a unit A which has the immolation

unit A will damage player 2 and player 3's unit
but will not damage player 1 unit

so you want it do damage to both ally and enemy units but not your own units?

 

[takethat]

yes, i want it so, can it be done?

This is quite simple actually. in the ability editor you can see a text that sais:

Stats-targets allowed. here you just choose Allied, Enemy, ground, neutral and Organic. of course you can add more if you want, but be carefull becouse some of them makes you only allowed to attack that kind of unit, for example "Hero" i think.

you should be able to damage your allies, enemys but not your own units now.

it works, but does the neutral and organic nessasery? without them also work perfectly...

What about lightning shield, if the hero gets permanent immolation, just order a dummy unit to cast lightning shield on the hero. There!

Though, the only difference here, is that it allows you to damage your own units.

Then set the duration to 10 minutes, then just make a periodic event that casts the "lightning shield" on the hero every 9 minutes and 59 seconds.

err, is it if i want to immolation only to target my own unit but will not damage either enemy or ally, i should check the "player units" box?

yea i think so. try removing Organic and Neutral and see if it still works
