Does equipment attached to a unit that dies go to the trash or return to your base?

Ruling: Equipment attached to a unit that dies returns to your base, not to the trash.

Nuances:

• Equipment cannot exist on the battlefield by itself
• This is supported by card text like Draven's Axes, which specifically states it dies when the unit dies (implying this is an exception to the normal rule)
• A unit can have multiple equipment attached to it
