Introduction

There are currenty 54 secret units in total, and 3 secret maps.
WARNING: Reading this guide may spoil your fun in finding the weapons. It's like an easter egg hunt across many different maps, with a prize for finding the easter egg.

Press F (by default) to enter freeroam to obtain the weapons. Once you find a weapon, by going near it, it'll start glowing. After about 5 seconds of glowing, it will disappear and award you with a brand new unit, and a new secret faction.
Click the links for image that tell you where to find the unit, and what the unit looks like.
This list of units will be expanded when more secret units are added, and as soon as they are found.

Some information in the images may be outdated, such as unit pricing, abilities etc, because of recent patches / updates...

The ballooner is a good swarm unit that grabs onto a unit, deploys a balloon, floats up into the air and then drops them at a high height to let them die of fall damage.

The bomb cannon is a war-machine unit, similar to that of the ballista and catapult. It shoots at units with a projectile that explodes on impact, similarly to the catapult, but the projectile has no arch and instead shoots in a *relatively* straight line.

CLAMS

The "CLAMS" unit is a summoner unit, similar to the scarecrow, that summons small clams that jump at enemies and attack them. It has a fast rate of summoning clams, and can make a whole army by itself. It's underwater in a small cave on the left side of the map.

Spooky 2

Spooky 2 currently contains the following secret units:
-Necromancer
-Witch

Necromancer's Lantern

The necromancer is found on the far right of Spooky 2. He throws projectiles at enemies that convert them into skeletons, that fight for him. He cannot convert all units; from my testing it seems he can only convert some basic melee units, he doesnt seem to be able to convert expensive or ranged units. However, some have said that with enough necromancers you can convert almost any unit. He can also swing his sickle if enemies get too close.

Witch's Broomstick

The witch is a floating unit that seems to have two main attacks, the main attack is it can fling projectiles at enemies which cause mushrooms to sprout on those enemies. Enemies covered in mushrooms seem to be slower and also seem to take damage over time, as well as getting a purple tint. They also appear to fight for the witch. The secondary attack of the witch is to summon two other witches that use the primary attack, which disappear after a short time.

Potential outdated information.

Please, take the information in this guide with a grain of salt. Secret unit locations SHOULD stay constant, but unit costs and even abilities may change between updates, and as such the guide may not be completely accurate.

Thanks!

Thanks to everyone, this guide is one of the top TABS guide that shows up on the overlay. Your input, such as through informing me and other where secret units I haven't already found, means a lot to me and i'm very glad that you guys went out of your way to view my guide and help out!
Thanks for the 50,000 Visits, 2,000 favourites and 1,500 ratings, a five star rating, and 300 community awards! I can't thank you all enough :D

Also, I didn't find out that Mace Spinners can become tornadoes with the help of cheerleaders, someone in the comments informed me of this!

I take criticism seriously and try to make this guide as good as I can; If you have something you want me to change about the guide information or the way its laid out, feel free to tell me.

One last thing, I would be very thankful if you can spare enough steam points to give this guide a community award, it would make the effort poured into this guide feel much more worth it, and my appreciation would be huge. Obviously, this is optional but it would make me feel good :3
(Thanks to those that already have given this guide some awards! You're awesome!)
