No more captured Eagles in BI?

The loser doesn't 'heal'. Thus that can't have happened.

I've only captured Eagles in BI and when I got the acknowledgement it said that the eagle was taken to a nearby city I owned and the Romans would make great efforts to get it back.

Recently I took down 3 1st Cohorts in one battle but nothing was said (I couldn't believe it). This time I wasn't near any city I owned so could this be a factor? Does there need to be a place for the eagle to go? Has anyone else noticed this or is it just an odd coincidence?

I've had the eagle capture message in BI a couple of times playing as ERE, but not had any eagle related traits.

One thing - if you are are currently in a horde, you do not have a city to return the captured eagle to - could this be why some folks aren't seeing this after wiping out cohorts?

I was not in horde. I captured the eagle as the Franks when the WRE sallied from a siege. The eagle was not in the sallying army, but in a reinforcing army that came from outside. Actually, I think the sallying army was the supporting one.
