What Is the Unit Creator in TABS Pocket Edition?
The Unit Creator is one of the most popular features in Totally Accurate Battle Simulator, and it’s fully available in TABS Pocket Edition. It allows players to design custom soldiers by combining weapons, costumes, abilities, and stats.
With this tool, you can make anything from a balanced warrior that fits into your campaigns to an absurdly powerful unit that can wipe entire armies. The mobile version has the same core features as the PC version, though controls are adapted for touchscreens.
How to Access the Unit Creator
- Open the game menu. From the main screen, tap on the Custom Content section.
- Select Unit Creator. This opens the creation interface.
- Create a new unit. Choose “New Unit” to begin designing.
- Customize appearance and stats. Edit weapons, clothing, abilities, and health values.
- Save your unit. Give it a name and select a faction for easy access in battle.
Once saved, your new unit will appear alongside the official factions and can be placed in sandbox or campaign battles.
Editing Unit Stats
The Unit Creator allows you to adjust multiple performance values. The most important ones include:
- Health: Determines how much damage your unit can take before being defeated.
- Movement Speed: Controls how quickly the unit runs into battle.
- Attack Speed: Affects how often the unit swings or shoots.
- Damage: Directly impacts how hard the unit hits.
- Size: Adjusting scale makes units bigger or smaller, which can also affect reach and hitboxes.
These stats can be tweaked to create balanced characters or exaggerated super soldiers.
Assigning Weapons and Abilities
Weapons and abilities define how your custom unit fights:
- Melee Weapons: Swords, axes, clubs, and spears for close combat.
- Ranged Weapons: Bows, muskets, and crossbows for distance attacks.
- Special Weapons: Cannons, magic staves, or faction-specific gear for unique roles.
- Abilities: Powers like charge attacks, fire breath, or special projectiles add another layer of customization.
Players often enjoy mixing unusual combinations, like giving a giant a ranged weapon or attaching magic powers to a farmer.
Customizing Appearance
Beyond stats and abilities, the Unit Creator includes visual customization:
- Clothing and Armor: Pick costumes from different factions.
- Colors: Change the unit’s team color, skin, or outfit.
- Accessories: Add hats, helmets, or unique items to personalize your creation.
The visual options don’t affect gameplay, but they add to the fun of building unique characters.
Tips for Making Powerful Units
- Balance is key: If health and damage are too high, battles may become boring.
- Combine melee and ranged: A hybrid fighter can adapt to more scenarios.
- Give them weaknesses: Designing units with clear counters makes gameplay more interesting.
- Use size carefully: Bigger units hit harder but are easier to target.
- Test often: Place your unit in sandbox mode against different enemies to see if it’s fair.
Differences Between Mobile and PC Unit Creator
The core tools are the same, but on mobile:
- Touch controls: All menus are accessed via taps and sliders rather than mouse input.
- Screen space: Some menus feel more compact but function the same way.
- Performance limits: Extremely large or powerful units may cause lag or crashes on weaker phones.
Despite these small differences, the Unit Creator is just as fun on mobile as it is on PC.
Final Thoughts
The Unit Creator in TABS Pocket Edition gives players endless creative freedom. Whether you want to design a balanced hero for your campaign, experiment with strange weapon combos, or create unstoppable monsters, the tools are all at your fingertips.
By learning how to adjust stats, assign weapons, and test your creations, you can build units that fit your playstyle perfectly. Just remember—sometimes the most fun comes not from making the strongest unit possible, but from experimenting with weird ideas and seeing how the chaos unfolds.
