[Ansteorra-archery] Royal Huntsman Precedence

I'm not saying that's a bad idea.  I just don't every recall seeing a local
Knight or Rapier Marshal standing up there.

Whatever pecking order is decided on, is OK with me.

I would just like to see one, of some type, decided on.  And then in some
fashion, that pecking order made known to the rest of the Kingdom.
