Reading the guide now Robert, thank you. Also I love the totalwar github! Were you one of those responsible for that mod?

Then, use a container radius search to pull all objects within the friendly bot's range, then over each of the objects check to see if the team number matches or not. You can apply further tests as necessary.
As for further instructions, that will require an additional framework layer over the AI object, something on par with a "think" method where the AI will need to determine the necessary course of action, and execute it.
Since you are relatively new to the whole scripting of the engine (by the looks of existing topics), might I recommend you give a read of the first seven chapters of my ultimate guide (which are free) just to get your feet wet with some basic scripting stuff.
If that seems a bit too basic, I have a massive repository of TS code including functions & weapons from an old Tribes 2 project of mine that you're more than welcome to look over. Do keep in mind that some of the syntax and functioning will be different.
