Not quite.

You weren't looking at the RfS when you checked this, or you'd not
have needed to ask.  Tch...  The right tools for the job and all that.
 Load them up and follow along:

X.4.a. gives you a CD for reversing the tinctures of the field.
X.4.b. gives you a CD for adding a secondary charge group. (My
knee-jerk reaction has me thinking 'what about the grapes? Are you
getting a CD for flavor, aroma, excellent art?' - no offense intended,
please, but codify WHAT the CD comes from, it makes it much easier to
keep CDs straight and accurately count difference.)
X.4.d. gives you a CD for reversing the tinctures of the chevron.

So three CDs. :)
