Someone last week in the game told me that Macros is not fully functioning in the game like ability sequence and few others.

The initial start for a macro command is /script.
This command usually works for me for writing a message to my chat system, but server is down so I cannot check the details:
TextLogAddEntry("Chat", SystemData.ChatLogFilters.SHOUT, towstring(tostring(L"My Message")))
WAR uses wstring for it's chat system, so one has to convert the text first. "Chat" is the tab you are sending the message to.
SystemData.ChatLogFilters.SHOUT is the type of message you are sending - here a "shout" - it would appear in yellow in my chat window.

I cannot confirm how macros interact with the server, since this command is for my chat only and is handled by the local API.

Is there a way to cycle enemy targets via /script or via an addon-function? Any idea? Would really appreciate this.

there isn't only way would be /assist or /target name easier to just press tab
you can't macro abilitys that was ban able on live.
there was addons that could be tied to abilitys that fired off text but if its a spamable skill your chat would get locked if you spammed it

Yes, I did not provide you with commands to send messages to other people because I was not interested in getting "Cheap Gold, warhammer secure www.goldspammer.love.you"... but those still remembering the original game can easily guess that such commands are indeed in the API - If your goal is to broadcast your target for assistance, then you could take a look at the LUA code from the scenario addons I have seen broadcasting in "group" and " warband".
The /assist function and targetUnit () were disabled by Mythic early on to avoid massive focus-firing one-button fests. You could broadcast your target to the group, but they will have to manually click on it to target... That is, unless you are using HansW slight modification to the LUA API, but then the devs would probably want to talk to you, briefly :-)
