You can make the Cyclones neutral or give them locust.
I didn't read your triggers, but I would do it this way: 1) Base the spell of any spel, but don't give it a buff. 2) When it is casted, add the target unit to a unit group, wait 10 + ((Level of ability being cast)*10), and remove the target unit. 3) Use a periodic event trigger to pick every unit in your unit group and change its allignment.
There are two problems with this method. One, if I add the unit to the Unit Group, not every unit will change it's alignment every 10 seconds. Think about it, I take every unit in the group every 10 seconds but if an unit is added later, it changes alignment faster. Perhaps you could PLEASE read BOTH the spells and help me... I really can't do them and I don't know why... But using a spell without buff would suck, because I need to know which units are affected by confuse and which aren't.
