Raising it

The Onager comes out of its own spawner, which your Builder raises for 2,350 gold in the middle of a battle. Once it stands it musters an Onager every 1 minute 42 seconds by itself, and levelling it shortens that — to 1 minute 10 seconds at level 2 and 45.3 seconds at level 3.

Upgrades cost 1,750 gold to level 2 and 7,800 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 1,600 gold — gold carried between battles, earned by fighting them.
