So here's an esoteric question for you armory heralds.
If I have two non-identical things in saltire, how do
I (or indeed, can I) specify which goes where? In
other words, which overlaps the other and in what
order?
For example: "in salitire an A and a B" (warning,
ASCII art ahead)
1) is it (A from ne to sw, B from nw to se, A on top)
B A
B A
A
A B
A B
2) or (A from ne to sw, B from nw to se, B on top)
B A
B A
B
A B
A B
3) or (A from nw to se, B from ne to sw, B on top)
A B
A B
B
B A
B A
4) or (A from nw to se, B from ne to sw, A on top)
A B
A B
A
B A
B A
I tend to lean towards #2, but am not sure why. I
know it doesn't make any difference for conflict
purposes, but for reproducability...
