It seems that you are working on WOG, which rquires SOD. And SOD introduced a better way of laying obstacles on the map. Just find an icon with some trees on one of the upper toolbars.

I think he's talking not about WoG but about H4, at least everything in his post says that...
So, for the scripting tutorials, this link is good: http://h4o.cjb.net/. And for the obstacles, there is some utility for placing multiple obstacles on the map, but AFAIK it's in Russian and I don't know where to take it. But I can advise you not to make a "tree wall". Use rocks/mountains for blocking the ways.

But while you're placing obstacles, you've more time to think about map's balance or storyline, for example

You should check the Heroes 4 Utility. It allows to paint the terrain with roads and then running the Utility will change the road forests. It can be found from www.celestialheavens.com

Yes, that's the utility I was taling about! It was written by one of the WoG developers, so it should work OK. However, info on our Russian H4 site Heroic Corner says that it needs the "Programmer" skill on the level not less than Advanced
