Overview
Upgrades Mangonels into a stronger area-damage siege engine.
Effect and affected units
Onager changes upgrades Mangonel to Onager. The affected target is Onager; the bonus does not automatically apply to the rest of the roster. This is the main reason to research it; compare the affected units with the army you expect to field.
Research cost and timing
Research is available in Imperial Age at the Siege Workshop. The recorded cost is 1450 Food, 1000 Gold, and the research time is 150 seconds. Consider whether the upgrade will affect enough units or workers to repay that investment before the match is decided.
