Hey Guys, I've Been Having alot of People on Blizzforums and Battle.net ask me. About Uncloacking Units like in Faith and Destiny. It's Quite Simple to do and only smart Map Makers will be able to tell That this is How you did it.
First You Make an Arbitor Put it anywhere on the map for The Unit you want to Appear to be Uncloacking in front of you. Then Put the Unit Next to the arb so it's in the cloacking field.
Now When you run a Transport(Move Unit) Trigger, as the unit moves to it's new Location it will uncloack, but it will look as if it was always there.
Most Map Makers Should Know this, or use it but I was Asked alot so i decided to just post it. Enjoy the Information!

No Not Warp in. It's Best you try it out for yourself. It'll Just Uncloack a Unit Cool Style. If you Play Faith and Destiny Rpg Watch The First Boss Cutscene and watch when his Guards Appear. That's one great Example. I Can also Upload an Example Map but you'll have to wait until tomarrow

I've found that it looks cooler if the unit just fades in, personally.

Maybe someOne should post the map Faith and Destiny, but I don't get it...What the point of cloaking a unit and move it and uncloak it?

if u want F and D go to teh map archive its like teh first or second page
i think its to make it look like the unit (body gaurds) like appear like a ghost that are not visiond and look like a ghost or other unit uncloaking

It basically moves a unit, but it looks like you created it by uncloaking it
