Well, last night i dug through the book to the description of Pippin's helm, but outside of describing the insignia, Tolkein doesn't give us mideval-FPRG-geeks much to chew on. However, since Faramir later gives the deceased's rank as the High-Warden of the Tower & Big-Muckety-Muck General, it makes sense to assume that he had a very similar helm to what the grunts beneath him were wearing (maybe just a bit fancier)

(the game supplement tells me even less about what the helm's supposed to look like, meaning that, as a GM, i could construct the helm after any fashion i chose, so long as it featured the star and wings and coordinated with the rest of his gear...)

s.t.
