Does recalling a unit detach gear from it?
Ruling: No, when a unit is recalled, any attached gear remains attached to it.
Sequence:
- The unit moves from the battlefield to the base (both are board zones)
- Gear stays attached throughout the recall
- The unit arrives at the base with gear still attached
Nuances:
- Gear only detaches when a unit moves from a board zone to a non-board zone (such as being destroyed, banished, or returned to hand)
- Recall is a board-zone-to-board-zone movement, so gear attachment is maintained
