    Having a Standard Bearer and War banner in a unit confer's a 2+ bonus. If I were to add a Battle Standard Bearer hero to the unit would he boost the resolution by another 2+?

    I figure since there are two standard bearers in the unit you can only add 1+ and not 1+ for each Standard, but having two battle standards would give 1+ each. So that would confer a 3+ bonus total for a unit with both Battle Standard Bearers.

    I'm not exactly sure which one is applied so pls comment.

    TY for reading ;) .

    +1 for units banner (only +1 regardless how much normal unit banner included in to the current battle)
    +1 for Army Battle Standard (wich is carried by battle standard Bearer)
    +1 for War banner (its a magical banner so you have only one war banner in your army)

    Total +3 bonus you can get from banners ... but there is other banners in the different armies... example darkelves have a banner which gives +d3 combat resulation on charges... for that banner darkelf unit gets 2+d3 (3-5) combat resulation on charges...

    And High Elves have one for +D6!

    Anyway Azectoth is right. A BSB gives +1 on top of a standard, but only 1 standard can apply so if there are other unit standards as well, it is still only +2 overall. If you put the warbanner in anywhere, it becomes +3.
