All the Real World concern over the fate of the standard (Roman signifers leaping into the midst enemy to ensure that the unit advances, Capturing one of Napolean's Eagles or the King's Colors, etc) should be used as a base for how the regiment feels about the Guardian object, then multiply it by 10 or 20! The standard *is* the unit much more than the men of the rank & file.
