 You could have all of them hooked up with a switch trigger that would give em an alternate set of fleeing waypoints once the trigger was tripped


kinda like how you make a dood go from a set of   base perimeter patrol cycle waypoints  to a set of seek and destroy waypoints or the like once an alarm goes off..

 So your switch trigger has a  countside  command in its activation field, and when the proper Side has less than the specified number of guys alive on it they will switch to a new set of waypoints


You could also just have a trigger with the countside  for activation and then have it  tell all your dudes to  allowfleeing 1 and they should just run off on their own all disorganized like..  


and don't forget to bring a towel  ;D

Switch triggers i aint come across them yet. I aint seen them in the tuts either. Wot r they?

  Create a normal trigger, and then look for the box that says before it

Type:

Open the box and then choose 'Switch'. You have just created a Switch trigger.

Now you can give the unit you want to flee a 'Hold' waypoint and then, select F5 and drag a line from the waypoint to the trigger. When the conditions inside your trigger are met the unit on Hold will move to his next waypoint, which you need to choose.
