I'm not entirely sure how to explain this, and would have a horrible time trying to explain it in JASS, but here goes:

Have a check run that adds all units owned by Player X to a defined variable unit group. Then, have a seperate trigger that has that specific group attack move to a point. If you need to, change acquisition range via triggers. Mostly its filling in the blanks, after finding the right triggers. If the unit group does an attack move to a point, then they should automatically decide to attack anything along the way.

(This is mostly guesswork on my part, I looked at the editor for five minutes)

These should be under Unit triggers. I only looked up those on my seperate computer, however, and do not have access to WE Unlimited on the one I'm on at the moment.

Do what, from Hero Line Wars? Attack a certain point? Honestly, there is someone who can better answer your questions, at the moment I seem to be fumbling around the Editor without an answer. Sorry xD

Please explain more clearly what you want. Is your map exactly like hero line wars and you want units to move like that, or something different.

Well, in HLW, the spawns are sent on Patrol to the center mark... they just never go back to their spawn spot because they get destroyed, etc..
You would need to spawn 1 unit at a time, then set that unit to patrol by using 'last created unit' or somthing along those lines.
