The Fire Lancer is unaffected by upgrades?
Special Note: If you build 4 stables along the corners of "Spirit Way", have researched "Military Academy" at black smith and all stables being supervised by Imperial Official, you can mass produce fire lancers @ 70% cost (6 sec each). same can be applied to any dynasty unit built same way.
