Chu Ko Nu · Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition: Unit costs and base values

Using this reference

Check the version of Chu Ko Nu before comparing its numbers. Age, civilization, tier or star level can identify different records under the same unit name. Costs and population belong to the selected record, so compare like with like before planning a group.

If materials are listed, use the quantity calculator for the number of units you want to produce. That total is a resource budget, not a combat forecast. The table does not model positioning, opposing units, upgrades or a complete army composition.

A worked example

Suppose you want 4 × Chu Ko Nu. This recipe produces 1 per operation, so you need 4 operations. That produces 4 in total. The direct material list is Gold × 140 and Wood × 160.

One useful comparison

For Base health, Chu Ko Nu is listed at 45, compared with 50 for Cavalry Archer: a difference of 5. This compares that field in the recorded variants only. Read the other fields before deciding whether the trade-off matters to your use.
