Strategist Prop Audit

This audit keeps Zhuge Liang's large white feather fan as a unique signature prop. It also keeps character-specific scholar traits intact: Ma Liang should read as the white-eyebrow civil official, not as another white-robed feather-fan strategist. Detailed per-unit visual direction lives in strategist-character-direction.md.

Prop Rule

• unit-zhuge-liang is the only unit allowed to use a large white feather fan silhouette.
• unit-zhuge-liang may keep the white-robed sage read; other strategists should not rely on white robes plus fan shapes for identity.
• unit-ma-liang may use bright white only for his famous eyebrows and small paper highlights. His robe silhouette should stay green/olive/tan and document-focused.
• Other strategist, civil-official, and shaman units should use bamboo slips, scrolls, maps, command tablets, brush cases, small folding fans, talismans, ritual staffs, or faction-specific tools.
• A fan is acceptable only when it does not read as Zhuge Liang's large white feather fan at 50px battle scale.
