Talk:Ancient

Hello, since I am new to the wiki and do not want to make a mistake and butcher your input, I would like you to point out a few things that, to my mind, are important  to this article.

Standard bearers are not only included in space marine chapters, as we see f.e. in

"Jarran Kell - Ursarkar E. Creed's best friend and Regimental Standard Bearer of the Cadian 8th Regiment"

Also probably in some of the Chaos aligned forces we will find corresponding individuals.

(Do not want to edit since i cannot give specific sources but only used this wiki)

They are seen as rallying point in battle for allied forces. Also they are normally shown to be close to the leader of whatever unit we are talking about.

The chapter banner is normally carried by a member of the Honor Guard.

Notable Standard Bearers:

Captain Navarre Black Templars (Wars of Apostasy article on this wiki)

Icon Bearer: Ashkanez (notable Word bearers) (34th host)

Burias Drak'Shal (34th host)

Brother Bethor - Bearer of the Sacred Standard. (The Dark Angels have three Sacred Standards, namely the Standards of Fortitude, Retribution and Devastation.) (>Notable Dark Angels)

Odovocar (Captain) - Legion Standard Bearer(notable Emperor's Children)

Corbulo (Blood Angels) Bearer of the Red Grail (whcih seems to have some sort of banner effect for surrounding Blood Angels.)

"Veteran Sergeant Cleutin - Cleutin is the most senior sergeant within the Blood Angels Chapter and the current Guardian of the Shroud of Sanguinius -- one of the Chapter's most revered holy relics. It is said to be the remnants of an ancient battle standard that the Emperor used to cover Sanguinius' dead body"Neithan02 (talk) 01:03, April 29, 2013 (UTC)
