I've decided to pick up WHFB again!

I skipped 7th edition!

Question!

It is common to see units - and in this case Orc Boar Boyz - who may take a magic standard worth up to 50 points. My question is, do I need to pay the points for the standard bearer, or do I just pay for the magic standard?

It seems pretty obvious that I need to pay the points for both, I just wanted to be absolutely sure.

IF you take a standard bearer then you may additionally pay for a magic banner.

So you take a RnF, upgrade to banner bearer, add on magic banenr costs (if applicable to that unit)

Thought so! Cheers!
