Suicidal charge - You wiped him out!!!
OK - no rules at hand - but I think to take banner it must be done in melee. So if unit was killed by bows the banners would be in the dirt.
In that case the archers may have grabbed the colours as they exited the field, or maybe the elves did... So to rule this I checked the campaign rules and have decided to run with capturing and executing a hero (in this case a banner). So elves captured the banner but only on a d6 4+ they (execute) keep it.
I rolled a 3... so the elves somehow lost it after the battle rescued by orks that managed to grab banner as they fled.
If the rules of war get confused and wrong decisions are made - war is like that
