[ANSTHRLD] Conflict question

[Alasdair MacEogan]

Greetings.  

Just to clarify (and to save soem lookign up) The device you were tryign to register was "Azure, a bend between a triquetra and a decrescent argent."  The device it conflicted with is registered to Ian MacAngus, "Azure, a bend
between a mullet of eight points and a tree eradicated argent."

When comparing the 2 you did get one difference for the change in the type of secondaries (yours were the triquetra and the decrescent and his were the mullet and the tree).  Even though you changed both charges, you only got one difference.  

Now on to what can be done to clear them, which is your primary concern.  Note that these COULD be ways to clear the conflict and I am not guaranteeing that one of these changes might not introduce a different conflict.  Nor am I saying that this is necessarily my order of recommendation. :-)  I am sure I will rapidly get corrected if I am giving you mistaken information.  I also am equally sure others will add options I am missing.

1.  Change tinctures.  Either changing the bend or the secondaries to gold should clear it.
2.  Adding a chief, bordure, or something else along those lines.
3.  Adding a charge to the bend.  This will require you to widen teh bend significantly (which is something that would need to be done anyway).
4.  This one I am unsure of so I am asking for others to comment.  I am unsure if changing the bend to say a bend wavy grant an additional difference.  Though I do believe that changing it form a bend to a bend sinister would give you a difference.

Those are just a  couple thoughts off the top of my head.  Please wait to take them to heart till the more knowledgeable weigh in on this.

Alasdair
