In conflict checks I woould suggest using the SCA Ordinary - Master Index at http://oanda.sca.org/ordinary/index.html rather than the Complex/Armory Search forms. With simple armory such as "Vert, on a chevron argent three triskeles sable", the conflict checking isn't too bad, you only need to look armory registered under the primary charge. (Things like "Vert, on a pale argent, three triskeles sable." are clear by RfS X2)
"Vert, a chevron argent" would conflict, but it isn't listed under "Chevron - 1- Uncharged - Plain Line - Argent". Anything else in this category, such as "Vert, a chevron argent between/overall/etc ...", is at lest 2 CD clear.
"Chevron - 1 - Charged - Complex Line" yields "Vert, on a chevron engailed argent three rooks contourny sable" (Ogmundr hrókr, Device, March 2009). I see 1 CD for the complex line and a 2nd CD for change to type of tertiary under RfS X4j(ii).
"Vert, on a chevron Or/ermine/etc three triskeles sable" would conflict, but there's nothing registered under "Chevron 1 - Charged - Plain Line - Or/Fur/etc". Similarly "Vert, on a chevron inverted argent three triskeles sable" would conflict, but there's nothing under "Chevron inverted - 1 - Charged".
The category needing closest scrutiny is "Chevron 1 - Charged - Plain Line - Argent". "Vert, on a chevron argent five roses gules" would conflict since there can only be 1 CD for changes to a tertiary charge group. Fortunately, everything there has a secondary charge group for a 2nd CD except one.
Consider versus "Vert, on a chevron throughout argent three holly leaves vert." (Klaus Winter, Device, Jan 2001). I see 1 CD for changes to the tertiary charge group, but was unsure if there's a 2nd CD between a "chevron" and a "chevron throughout". Had to check the Precedents for the answer. The latest I found was "[a chevron throughout raguly on the upper edge] Conflict with ... Azure, a chevron embattled argent. There is a CD for the addition of the secondaries, but nothing for the difference between a chevron embattled and a chevron raguly on the upper edge nor for the difference between a chevron and a chevron throughout. [Thome le Lent, 05/00, R-Drachenwald] "
Sorry,
Tostig

OK, so I have a client who wants Vert, on a chevron argent three
triskeles sable.
I figured I'd come up with at least some close calls, if not some
outright conflicts. Here's the closest I've got. What am I
overlooking?
