These are the Chu-ko-nu's own figures, the ones the Armory prints. In battle the Jade Dynasty's trait is added on top: +6% speed · +5% damage · +2% range · −2% health. Range, reach and speed are in the battlefield's own units.
Special powers
None. The Chu-ko-nu fights on its figures alone — nothing in its data bends a rule.
Strong and weak
Strong: Swarms, light troops.
Weak: Armor, long range.
As a ranged troop, it deals extra damage to Siege (×1.3), Anti-Armor (×1.2) and Beast (×1.2) troops.
Cavalry (×1.35), Shock (×1.3) and Beast (×1.3) troops deal extra damage to it.
Raising it
The Chu-ko-nu comes out of its own spawner, which your Builder raises for 750 gold in the middle of a battle. Once it stands it musters a Chu-ko-nu every 22.8 seconds by itself, and levelling it shortens that — to 14.6 seconds at level 2 and 9.3 seconds at level 3.
Upgrades cost 500 gold to level 2 and 2,400 gold to level 3. Every level also makes the troops it musters hit harder and last longer.
Before it can be raised at all it has to be unlocked in the Armory, for 300 gold — gold carried between battles, earned by fighting them.
