-	Capturing for intent of forcing a [[Unit]] to change [[Side]]s is generally reserved for [[Caster]]s, who are rare and valuable, and not [[Warlord]]s, whose [[duty]] and [[loyalty]] make them unlikely to join their captors.

[[Warlord]]s and basic [[troops]] may be captured for interrogation purposes, ransom, or some other reason. Presumably, [[Ruler]]s cannot [[Disband]] their units if they have been captured by another side, since this would make preventing interrogation or conversion relatively simple and thus make capture pointless.
