Egil's Company bear a black shoulder pad with Egil's symbol - The Iron Wolf's head on it. It is the colour of iron. On shoulder-pads with a trim or edging, the trim is also the same Iron colour.{{Fn|1e}}
Egil's Banner is the Iron Wolf rampant on a black field edged in Iron. It bears the Runes 'Opila' meaning heritage estate and possession and 'Hagalaz' which attributes honour or means hail. Hence a rough translation from the Eldar Furthark (or Proto-Norse) runes should identify the bearer of the runes as having great possession and material wealth either which gives him much honour, or he should be awarded much honour for it. The full heraldry is displayed on a banner in the red of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]]. The bottom of the banner shows from left to right; a [[Wolf Guard]] honour marking of a paw print in a diamond shape displayed over runic liturgy, the silhouette of the hunter (a wolfs head face on), and and honour marking of a wolf skull with an Astartes combat knife run through it with runic script above. {{Fn|1f}}
