Onager

Template:Unit Infobox Onagers are basic siege units, unlocked from the Level 2 Siege Workshop. They take up 3 army camp space. Onagers have no preferred target. Onager shots do area-of-effect damage. Onagers are also known as Catapults depending on the upgrade level.

General Assessment

Strengths

• Area of effect damage.

Weaknesses

• Slow
• Very less hit points in comparison to trebs.

Tactics

Attack

• Target a wall outside the range of a tower and one can take down one or two surrounding buildings or defense without taking any damage.
• Usually not used when compared to trebs but can be used, maybe one, at the end of the battle to inflict some strategic damage and earn the cool double star.
• Siege rush with Conrad the Elder is still good in Age VII: 2 trebuchets + 2 rams + 5 catapults + protecting units like mamluks
