Unit - Pause Unit

Does the job, though it doesn't look particularly nice.

Try using a dummy unit (one for each target at it's position) and ordering it to cast a modified version of Aerial Shackles on the target.

well thx anyway although didnt helped !-.-:banghead:

Hmm why didnt it work. You need to pick every unit in your area, Pause them AND set their animation speed to 0%. Then 4 seconds later unpause and set animation spd back to 100%.

Cheerio

Base a dummy spell off entangling roots and do this

Cryoshell
    Events
        Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Cryoshell 
    Actions
        Wait 0.70 seconds
        Set Cryopt = (Target point of ability being cast)
        Set Cryo_AOE = (1000 x (Level of Cryoshell  for (Casting unit)))
        Set Cryo_AOE_effect = (Real(Cryo_AOE))
        Set Cryo_ug = (Units within Cryo_AOE_effect of Cryopt)
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in Cryo_ug and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Unit - Create 1 Blizzard Dummy for Player 1 (Red) at Cryopt facing Default building facing degrees
                Unit - Add Dummy Cryo  to (Last created unit)
                Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Night Elf Keeper Of The Grove - Entangling Roots (Picked unit)
                Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
        Custom script:   call DestroyGroup (udg_Cryo_ug)
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation (udg_Cryopt)

its a spell I recycled from a map which i didn't complete.
Basically it picks every unit who's an enmy of the player and does entangling roots on them. They are immobalised and get damage overtime.
