Siege units were capturable in A23 and maybe even more recently, why were was that removed, @Stan`?

I think capture for siege units is a great idea and should be part of the main game (now that capturing ships has been also proposed). It would be a way to force a realistic use of them.

I never stated nor implied the opposite, just that since this is far less profitable than plundering a city, simplifications could be considered (like they are on many other things).

Actually, armor and weapons were much more valuable than is commonly thought, and gathering armor and weapons from the battlefield was a very common thing, so common that both the Iliad, the Odyssey, and the Aenied talk about how both famous and powerful warriors and newbies would make sure to take their opponents war gear for later use or sale.
