Well, am making a heroes type map, and I do not know how to do this correctly.
There is a choice of 4 heroes, and a "Random Unit".
What I would like to do, is when they select the "Random Unit" you get 1 unit out the 4.
The problem I am having is, how many switches would I need to randomize? Because I don't think I am doing it right.
Here is what I was thinking about doing, but it doesn't make sense to me...
=======
Conditions
=======
P'X' brings '1' to "Hero - 1"
Deaths of "Y" = 1
=====
Actions
=====
Randomize Switch '1'
Randomize Switch '2'
Set Switch '3'
Set Deaths of "Y" = 0
Remove 'Unit' at "Hero - 1"
=======
Conditions
=======
Switch '1' = Set
Switch '2' = Clear
Switch '3' Set
=====
Actions
=====
Create "Hero - 1" at "B"
Clear Switch '3'
Preserve Trigger.
=======
Conditions
=======
P'X' brings '1' to "Hero - 2"
Deaths of "Y" = 1
=====
Actions
=====
Randomize Switch '1'
Randomize Switch '2'
Set Switch '3'
Set Deaths of "Y" = 0
Remove 'Unit' at "Hero - 2"
=======
Conditions
=======
Switch '1' = Clear
Switch '2' = Set
Switch '3' Set
=====
Actions
=====
Create "Hero - 2" at "B"
Clear Switch '3'
Preserve Trigger.
So, then what would I do for the other 2 heroes? This only covers 2 of them...

Hmm... I think you forgot 2 other parts to the trigger. 
The randomization. (Which you had correct)
To create "Hero - 1"
To create "Hero 2"
To create "Hero 3"
To create "Hero 4"
What you did wrong, or forgot...
WHat you forgot, was that you had 4 outcomes:
SET
SET
;
SET
CLEAR
;
CLEAR
SET
;
CLEAR
CLEAR
Where each of those could be an outcome.
If you have anymore help, you can ask here, or PM me.

To randomize between four things, you'll need 2 switches.
First, you randomize the switches. They will be either cleared or set.
Then, you've got four possibilities. You need at lease one trigger for each possilibty. Like this:
