I do not see hero bands as common. I do admire Jeff's work, but this is where my Glorantha is different I guess.
For the clan Anzarni in our game we have the clan guardian, and a couple of *Herobands*, one being the player group. The clan warband functions like a heroband in Heroquest, with a guardian and all, but in my Glorantha guardians are not required for the day to day stuff. In my glorantha most people don't travel further than 5 miles from the stead where they were born so I don't see them as majorly necessary. I can see how it would make for good politiking though.
Regards
Rob
