Not sure if I fully understand exactly what you are trying to do, but
this syntax on the server:
>> TFPlayer.InvulnerableOn
>> {
>> channel CHAN_STATIC
>> volume 1
>> soundlevel SNDLVL_120dB
>> rndwave
>> {
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_crimsontide.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_darkness.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_flashdance.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_heart.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_italianjob.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_katebush.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_marvingaye.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_nightwish.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_pirates.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_queen.wav
>> wave player/invulnerable_on_strawbs.wav
>> }
>> }
Will make the server choose one of the wavs at random any time the
"TFPlayer.InvulnerableOn" script sound is emitted.

Can a server be configured to do a random wav by only using a script?
