## 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

- Base partial alpha: `0`

## 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.
