you always use the unit's highest base Ld, then apply any modifiers to it! (for example; the aformentioned culexus/pariahs, out-numbered in assault, below 50% starting strength, etc...)
as for the icons, it can be as simple as say hanging it from the model's belt or slaping a spare loyalist sergeant's banner onto your model and giving it a suitably chaotic look/paint job!
icons are not weapons so no, they don't rescrit the number of weapons you carry/use at any given time!
cheers!
