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.
