While I will always lean toward doing it as right as we can make it, I
also think that has to include our skills, resources and goals.

It may be that portability and skills for execution will lean us towards
a solution that while not documentable is in keeping with period
techniques and resources.

I plan to make a game set for myself while we are all at it, that is
customized to my arms much like what we will be executing for each of
the kingdoms.

We need to consult with our heralds to be sure that what we create will
be suitable for ownership and use by any member of the said kingdoms and
not just by the crown.

In Ansteorra that means using our black star badge and not using the
Kingdom arms. However, there are other things that are Ansteorran, even
if they are inside jokes or plays on kingdom specific awards, that would
also be appropriate to include in the decorations, Lions, cranes, irises
or rainbows and such. We could even use the red sun from the bottom of
the Kingdom arms as corners on a game board. They would be great to see
on a game board but would not be exactly the awards they reperesent nor
would they be worn so as not to limit ownership of that game to someone
who holds those awards.

Obviously I plan to help with these. This is a fantastic idea and I love
it that we have much time to design and prepare them.
