+
+## Visual Decision
+
+Wei crossbow archer v1 is accepted as a distinct ranged infantry variant. The blue-gray armor and wide horizontal crossbow separate it from bow archers and avoid the prior hero-like silhouette issue.
+
+## Technical Checks
+

+- Local build: `passed`

+
+## Notes
+
+The crossbow silhouette stays readable at 50px scale, and the compact blue-gray soldier reads as Wei rather than Shu. Frame bottoms are stable, and all frames are opaque with no border hits.
