Seems like we had a thread where we were posting the scan' of Banners etc. If you find that thread, then we can ask CS to post the photos from that thread.

I was never able to locate an emblem for them when I was developing a consolidated list of official legions.  I only found a color scheme - blue, yellow trim, older titans trimmed in bronze.

Is the Reaver pic you have from the 2nd Edition Codex Titanicus, the one which came in the Titan Legions box?

I would say the gauntlet in the kill banner is the legio symbol. Furthermore, I'd go so far as to say that the Legio Victorum might well be the old "Imperial Fists" order back from the days of Adeptus Titanicus.

(English version of Lexicanum 40k not much content yet)
They both have a Fist as a symbol but are not the same (L. Victorum also nicknamed "Foe Slayers").

Hm... the gauntlet might be the chapter symbol but it's hard to see from the pic and it's awfully similar to the Imperial Fists as Mojarn noted.  I don't think the skull on the kill banner is the chapter symbol it seems to be not uncommon as decoration for a kill banner.

I'll add it to the list as a tentative.  If someone digs up something to confirm, let me know.

FYI:

Paint Scheme/Unit Markings

The Legio Victorum's Titans have dark blue coloured armour, lined with a rich gold. Armour plating on the extremities of weapons is typically of a bright yellow, though the more ancient Titans may use bronze instead. Kill markings are usually displayed as stars on banners slung between a Titan's legs. The oldest Titans constructed on Mars have silver metals beneath their armour plating, whilst those built on Galatia are far duller, due to the different minerals present on the two Forge Worlds.

The Armageddon3 web pate on Legio Vuictorum from which that quite is taken:

I know I'm resurrecting an ancient thread here, but there was a website: legiovictorum.com which now appears to be defunct. Does anyone know where I can find some of the symbols/logos etc, especially those for kill banners? Apparently the symbol is a fist grasping two thunderbolts or something similar. Also, does anyone know which thread is being referred to above? This is the one with all the scans of the titan banners. Any help appreciated.
