Click on the unit's build pictures to download: Notice that there are certain units designed for the Uberhack TA mod and/or for the OTA (Original TA Game). Be sure to download the correct unit version before you play a TA game.

  Units must be placed into your main game folder.

  We recommend you to download the Uberhack TA mod. A must have!.

  Unit stats on this page are always OTA based, otherwise the unit has been designed exclusively for the UH.

  You might have menu and/or weapon/unit ID conflicts between your 3rd party units, so click here to download an useful program which analyzes and fixes your possible unit conflicts (I hope the link is still available..) . Do not forget to check the integrity of every TA-Power zip file you download to your computer.

This is a tool Benito and me did for the unit makers: The 3DO Dry Cleaner™ is an utility to clean up those faces in 3DO files which has no index color asigned or textures on them. It was designed to perform the function that 3DO Builder's 'Clean Up Model' should have done and emulates the collapse face of 3DSMAX. The aim of all this is to reduce the file size and memory usage of models, which should help to improve in-game performance.   An easy-to-use-in-2-steps tool (click on its 'About' button to see complete info).

Arm War Technologies:

Dart™

Level: 2 Adv. Gunship What you get with these units is specialized AG (Air-to-Ground) firepower. 'Hit and run' and the surprise factor may be decisive. On the other hand, you may build AA (Air-to-Air) and/or fighters to counter them. Flakers will cut them in pieces, being this the best way to stop any opponent who likes to mass-produce them.    To conclude, a piece of advice. If you realize that your opponent plans sending them over your base and you have not some decent AA support up then well, better you run towards the Galactic Gate! ;P Both units share the same weapon ID 250. Additional notes:  These units are for the OTA (Original TA Game) only The file contains both Arm and Core units This unit DOES NOT REQUIRE the TA:Core Contingency (the official Game's Expansion) Unit type: Adv.

Oppressor™

Level: 2 Vertical Rocket Launcher Kbot The Arm's base-firebase cracker Kbot. It launches and shares the Wombat hovercraft's VRocket. Less armored than the Core Dominator, the Oppressor is able to move slightly faster and climb better as well. Additional notes:  The UH (the UberHack's TA mod) version is being slightly revised for the new Emergency Units Pack This unit REQUIRES the TA:Core Contingency (the Game's Expansion) Unit type: Ground, Kbot Weapon: Wombat's rocket Metal: 328 Energy: 2.186 Build Time: 4.910 Max.

Pack0™

Level: 1 Pop-up Anti-air Defense The Arm's ground AA answer to the Core's Air Supremacy. This unit is very well armored and inflicts moderate damage to enemy air units only.  Additional notes:  This unit has been prepared for the Original TA Game only. This unit DOES NOT REQUIRE the TA:Core Contingency (the Game's Expansion) Unit type: Ground, pop-up. AA defense Weapon: GA2 missile Metal: 403 Energy: 1.696 Build Time: 4.263 Max. Velocity: none

Demolisher™

Level: 2 Heavy Lightning Support Tank This multi-role heavy lightning tank can be lethal on the battlefield. However, Each high energy lightning drains 310 Energy points, so check your ingame energy before you the demolisher starts to do its job... to demolish Although remember: Perimeter defenses, wreckage and many map features can completely block lightning weaponary. Additional notes:  The UH (the UberHack's TA mod) version is being revised for the new Emergency Units Pack This unit DOES NOT REQUIRE the TA:Core Contingency Unit type: Ground, Tank Weapon: High Energy Lightning Metal: 1.785 Energy: 9.880 Build Time: 17.039 Max.

Crusher

Level: 2 Dozer Vehicle Additional notes:  This unit is being revised for the Original TA Game only. Back to the R+D Lab, I have another half idea for this toy :)

Velocity: 1,5

Nova™

Level: 2 High Energy Lightning Defense As you probably know already, Arm builds better defensive weaponary than Core. Novas emit a short range High Energy lightning, which drains 310 Energy, but causes serious damage on even well armored units. This means some of extra care, basicaly to avoid lethal Energy stalls. On the other hand, some few well placed Novas, can literaly vaporize those enemy units moving through your bases. The Nova and the Demolisher both share the same weaponary system. Remember that lightning does can not hit enemy units through perimeter defenses,wreckage or map features. Additional notes:  The UH (the UberHack's TA mod) version is being slightly revised for the new Emergency Units Pack This unit DOES NOT REQUIRE the TA:Core Contingency Unit type: Ground, Tower Weapon: High Energy Lightning Metal: 714 Energy: 8.462 Build Time: 12.377 Max.

Additional notes:  The UH (the UberHack's TA mod) version is being slightly revised for the new Emergency Units Pack This unit DOES NOT REQUIRE the TA:Core Contingency Unit type: Ground, Constr. Vehicle Weapon: none Metal: 325 Energy: 3.995 Build Time: 11.115 Max. Velocity: 2,0

Deterrer™

Level: 2 RFMRPC, Rapid Fire Medium Range Plasma Cannon   War evolves as a need. Both factions improved their own Medium Plasma canon versions. These new version are dangerous defenses given their fire rate, so keep your land units out of their weapon range.

Arm Expansion  Spider Lab™

Level: Hybrid 1 - 2 Spider Lab, Produces All-terrain Kbots (Spiders) From the beginning I worked on this project with an only thing in mind: To create the Arm Spider Expansion Pack for TA.

All these new units have been accurately balanced and play-tested in a more than 250 hours project long. New strategies and tactics to make the old Cool War Game even more fun.

Ares™

Level: 2 Anti-air Flak Kbot This unique unit will be available for Arm only. I've decided to make any other kind of unit for Core, given that an Adv. Flakker Kbot would be something redundant in the game scheme IMO. Also this unit, the Arm Ares, will be included in the upcoming new version of the Emergency Units Pack for the UberHack. Wait to see the final result ;) Additional notes:  Click to download the UberHack's version. It'll be included in the Emergency Units Pack This unit REQUIRES the TA:Core Contingency (the Game's Expansion) Unit type: Ground, Kbot Weapon: Anti-air Flak cannon Metal: 736 Energy: 12.914 Build Time: 20.540 Max.

Dictator™

Level: 2 Massive Long Range Plasma Cannon Well... what could I say?. Scary? It has more weapon range than the Intimidator being much more expensive and moderately more armored. It takes its time to reload the massive plasma cannon, but it'll inflict a really big punishment on its targets. It drains 6000 E per shot, but causes a default damage of 4500! (not to commanders though... 2000 to each one only ;) Remember to build E storages or it'll not fire.

KrogTaar™

Level: 3 Amphibious Experimental Kbot II This Gantry Kbot clears literally the way of enemies while fires its powerful Adv. Riot cannons.

Cracker™

Level: 2 Selective Chemical-War Tower This chemical war tower, the first one of its genre for TA, fires  selective acid based projectiles which damage Arm units only (behaving as an alternative Neutron technology). Send your troops to stop an enemy swarm and support your units with Cracker's heavy fire support. That's its role so do not use against other core opponents... course ;P. Btw, it has less weapon range than a Punisher... Additional notes:  The UH (the UberHack's TA mod) version is being slightly revised for the new Emergency Units Pack This unit REQUIRES the TA:Core Contingency Unit type: Ground, Tower Weapon: Selective Acid Barrel Metal: 832 Energy: 4.976 Build Time: 10.226 Max.

Predator™

Level: 2 Patterned Alien Predator This unit goes with a powerful short range weapon (the dlex wrist-blades) as well as with a long range non-tracking shoulder cannon (the plasma caster). With its cloack abilities and his own self-destruction as a final touch, this unit will give you the fun that I was looking for. I didn't make it amphibious cause it would be too much, eh? =). The patterned Yautja unit, the Predator, is built in the Core Adv. Kbot Lab at a non-cheap cost though. Obviously, I made this unit for fun but believeme.. it works well in the game ;) Additional notes:  Click to download the version for the UberHack's TA mod This unit DOES NOT REQUIRE the TA:Core Contingency Unit type: Ground, Kbot Weapon: Combo Metal: 503 Energy: 15.978 Build Time: 32.980 Max.
