I'm not good with using arrays. Are you saying that I need to specify the range of which the array contains? Something like var PlayerAmount array of [0,1,2,3,4,5]; or something...not even close to that? XD
Kind of.
Array of known length are declared like so:
var ArrayName: array [0..8] of Integer;
Where array is set to have elements from 0 to 8. So you can safely access ArrayName[0], ArrayName[1] .. ArrayName[8].
In your case, of course, you set your maps player count minus one instead of 8.
So that 1st player uses element 0, second player uses element 1, etc.
So it would be written as
var ArrayName: array [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7] of Integer; ? (I separate the numbers with commas?)

No, it's exactly like he wrote above, in the square brackets you can specify the valid range of indexes ([0..8] = 0, 1, 2... 8, [5..7] = 5, 6, 7).

var g: integer;
begin
g:= States.UnitsGroup(aUnit);

i want to check if all members are dead then ... when unit dies

Good point, the warrior was removed from the group before calling the event OnUnitDied, so that's why States.UnitsGroup didn't work. I've changed it so OnUnitDied occurs while the warrior is still in the group
It will be in the next release.

Is it possible to give units a smaller view range?

No, that falls under changing unit statistics (attack, hitpoints, etc.) which we have avoided so far so we don't end up with each map being its own "balance mod" and the game has no consistency.
Although changing unit statistics could be awesome for a Dota/LoL kind of script

Using the event OnPlayerDefeated would be neater

That's because records are passed by value, not by reference. So the procedure SetTimer effectively has its own copy of TIMER that is separate from the original one. Ask Google if you're interested in a more detailed explanation.
To make it pass by reference, put "var" in front of the parameter:
procedure SetTimer(var Timer: aTIMER; aMin, aSec: integer);
