[ANSTHRLD] If Whole when Part? A CD Question

[kevinkeary at aol.com]

I dunno, I see the first as being true only if the second doesn't apply.

A minotaur's head conflicts with a bull's head.

A griffin's head conflicts with an eagles head.

Granted, a dragon's jambe is SLIGHTLY different from an eagle's, but not that much.

I wouldn't expect a CD between a unicorn's jambe and EITHER a horse's OR a goat's, but I might contest the matter between the latter two. I'd lose, but...

It's much like the fact that you can't blazon ordinaries differently to get around conflict.
Per fess sable and gules a fess argent is the same as argent a chief sable and a base gules.

I think I read your note wrong. It's the FIRST statement you take issue with. I agree with you then.

Would you please address the contradiction here?  (The whole charges
have X.2 difference, but that's stronger than and subsumes X.4.e)
In particular, can you explain how you could find difference in parts
that look nearly identical, when they are purported to come from
different types of creatures?
