I would only disagree with the 8th and 9th sons mark of cadency. The 8th because arms might not always contain a single object that can be doubled and turned and the 9th bacause changing colour would be too much like making some new arms. Apart from those, looks good.--Marc Pasquin 13:17, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

For the 8th son, maybe if the arms are geometrical or complex, the rule is that the coat of arms is simply impaled with itself. Or, since the system is described as more loose, the arms are simply doubled in some way, and different 8th sons do itin different ways. I do disagree with the color changing for the 9th son, however, since doing so could change one's arms into those of another family. Or... perhaps the colors change in predictable ways, such as "or to argent, argent to or". Benkarnell 13:25, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the kind words. I believe your questions/concerns are answered now in the actual article. It is still listed as a "Work In Progress" but please feel free to offer any feedback or suggestions there. Zahir 16:20, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
I think it would be better for the 8th son official cadency mark to be a simple inescutcheon or and for the ninth to be a saltire. I'm having problem imagining the herald not thinking about the pontential problems that could be faced with the current system and in any case, this would gel better with the rest of the system.--Marc Pasquin 16:27, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
