When taking a unit with Conscription, does it take all attached gear as well?
When you use Conscription to take control of a unit, you do not "take" its attached gear—you take the unit itself, and the gear stays attached to that unit as it changes controller.
According to the rules regarding attachment and board movement (as well as RiftJudge FAQ 8698 regarding recall), when a unit moves from one location to another (such as being recalled to your base), any attached gear remains attached to it.
Because Conscription instructs you to take control of the unit and then recall it, the unit moves to your base while still having all the gear that was previously attached to it, now under your control as the new controller of that unit.
