An Alternate Set of Tiles For
Mahjongg 3.3 by Nels Anderson

This is one of three sets of tiles which can be used in Nels Anderson's
Mahjongg 3.3 game.  (I strongly urge you to register with him for that
wonderful game if you have not done so already).

All three sets are based loosely on medieval shields and heraldric devices. 
Those who are knowledgeable in the arcane art and lore of heraldry will note
some variations from 'official' heraldric practice.  But who cares?

The tiles are arranged as follows.  

Tiles  1 - 10     feature RED as their predominant color
      11 - 20     feature BLACK
      21 - 30     feature BLUE
      31 - 34     feature GREEN

                  (For the Seasons and Flowers we have)
      35 - 38     4 Crowns, each with different backgrounds
      39 - 42     4 slightly wierd, multicolored shields, with the same
                  patterns but with different colorings
