Nope, it's the same basic shape as a mountain and many period mountains
were simply triangles.

August 2001 LoAR. No help here, though, as it would actually create
conflict to call a mountain a peripheral. Peripheral charges get no
difference for placement on the field, as they're forced into their
positions by their very definitions.
I still say it's in conflict with Zenobia of Rebelswood - Gules, a mountain
couped Or.
Since a mountain defaults to issuant from base, there's a CD for the
field changes but nothing for placement.
Also in conflict with William de Montegilt. In fact, he sparked a
precedent:
[Returning {Fieldless} A tri-mount couped Or.] Conflict with ...
Sable, a two-peaked mountain couped Or, capped argent. There is one CD
for fieldlessness but nothing for the artistic variation of the
mountain. [12a/93, p.15]
<grumph> Can't figure an elegant way out of this.
