# Strategist Prop Fix Batch 1

Goal: keep Zhuge Liang's large white feather fan unique, while preserving strategist readability for representative units.
Follow-up note: character-specific traits matter more than removing every white accent. Ma Liang now keeps a white-eyebrow identity while avoiding Zhuge Liang's white robe and feather-fan language.

## Units Updated

| unit | old read | new prop direction | result |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `unit-ma-liang` | white feather fan / soft Zhuge-like scholar | white eyebrows, green civil-official robes, bamboo slips, bound book, scroll case, sealed letter | fixed in follow-up |
