Is it normal to be able to delete defeated Allied Buildings/Units

[Fox]

I noticed this game and AOM, you can delete allied buildings and units, Of players that are no longer in the game, Did you know this? And do you do it?

[T-West]

Yes, that's normal.

[DMg Halt]

Yes but usually I only do it in games/scenarios where razing an enemy building counts for something. For example, in CBA, when a player resigns, and there are any partially left buildings remaining after they're gone, they won't disappear with the rest of the buildings and units. So, the enemy is able to raze them and get villagers.

Otherwise, I don't bother, unless their buildings are obstructing the trade route, or their villagers are surrounding a gold/stone pile that I want to mine.

"Otherwise, I don't bother, unless their buildings are obstructing the trade route, or their villagers are surrounding a gold/stone pile that I want to mine."

This stuff is basically the reason that you can destroy allied buildings, so you dont get obstructed by them. Other than cliffs you can remove /overcome any obstacle in game, but if allied buildings were to remain an "ally" could just wall you in and then drop out of the game.
