(In other kingdoms, intermediate awards don't always come with a Grant of Arms as they do in An Tir.)
The intermediate level awards in the West (Leaves of Achievement: Leaf of
Merit, for service; Rose Leaf, for A & S; and Ash Leaf, for combat and
combat support activities) do not carry a Grant of Arms. In Ansteorra, there
are two intermediate levels of awards kingdom-wide: those that carry an AoA
if the recipient does not already have one, and those that carry a GoA if
the recipient does not already have one. I have been told that the Middle
similarly has two levels of intermediate kingdom awards. And so it goes ....
The Patents of Arms (Chivalry, Laurel, Pelican, and the royal peerages) are
the same throughout the Knowne World. But awards given by the various
kingdoms vary *widely* in the structure of precedence when examined on an
interkingdom basis.
