The easiest way to use this function is to create a group, then add the following code to the group leader's init field:

[group this, getPosATL this] call BIS_fnc_taskDefend;

The more correct way is to:

Place function module on map (Arma 2 only)
Make one waypoint for group and put this code in Waypoints On.Act. field

[group this, getPosATL this] call BIS_fnc_taskDefend;

You can use triggers for this function too, but your groups must be named

{ [_x, getPosATL leader _x] call BIS_fnc_taskDefend } forEach [grpName1, grpName2];
