A Battle Standard Bearer is a heroic model carrying a particularly impressive banner, and it will be presented as an option in your chosen army list. The Battle Standard is carried by a character model and, unless specified otherwise, the model that carries the Battle Standard cannot be the General. Unlike normal standards, the Battle Standard is lost if the bearer is slain – other models cannot pick it up, even if they are in the same unit.

Combat Result Bonus

A Battle Standard grants a bonus of +1 combat result point. Unlike other standards, a Battle Standard grants this bonus even if another standard is present. If, by some unusual circumstance, there are two Battle Standards on the same side in the combat, you can only count the bonus for one.
