my google-fu is failing me

Does anyone have a definitive list of magical battle standards, pendants, flags etc that can be attached to two handed weapons like spears and lances etc?

Thanks in advance

The only thing that leaps to my mind is the standards from Heroes of Battle.

PF has Knight's Pennon and Void Pennant, but they're both pretty underwhelming I'd say.

MIC also has some, but mostly reprints from HoB.

Standards:


Archers’ Standard (FoW p.122)
Banner of Law (HoB p.133)
Banner of the Goblin’s Bane (HoB p.133)
Banner of the Unliving (HoB p.133)
Bloody Banner of Valaes Tairn (FoW p.122)
Commander’s Pennant (FoW p.122)
Forgehome Standard (HoB p.133)
Healer’s Standard (HoB p.133)
Knight’s Banner (FoW p.122)
Sign of Broken Steel (FoW p.122)
Sign of the Favored (HoB p.133)
Silver Standard (FoW p.122)
Standard of the Galloping Steed (HoB p.133)

From MIC, there's the Standard of Valor (p.197), found in the Five Virtues magic item set. It can still function when affixed to a pole, spear of polearm.

There' also Banner of the Storm's eye (MIC p.151), but that works differently: you either wear it on your shoulders, or you can attach it to a specially made backpack frame to free up your shoulders slot.

Banner/Standard (AE&G p.21): non-magical gear that grants a +2 bonus to be spotted from a distance.

Banner of Valor (A&EG p.129): no rules listed for being attached to a pole.

Great list. Thanks. Given my campaign I think Banner of Good is the ticket.
