Ability Bugs?
As far as I can tell, Diaochan's Blossoming Beauty ability is supposed to be an aura that gives -2s cooldown reduction (similar to other strategists' abilities) to other nearby generals, while also giving units around her unbreakable.

Unfortunately because this ability is a pulse type, the unbreakable effect only seems to apply for one second every time it pulses, meaning that any units around her that would break without her ability break in the 'pause' between the ability refreshing and it activating again. It pulsing doesn't rally them, because applying unbreakable doesn't rally units that have broken.

This might be fixable just by increasing the duration of the pulse from 1 to 2 seconds in "special_ability_phases_tables" (or maybe in "unit_special_abilities_tables"?), but I haven't had a chance to test that yet.

The aura also seems to be extremely large, so the effect range of it might also need to be looked at? It's set to -1 right now, which as far as I can tell means it's infinitely sized (i.e. covers the whole map). Giving units unbreakable is extremely strong, so I'd assume it should be a pretty small area if that part of the ability is kept in as-is? Giving -2s on a 1-second pulse to general cooldowns across the whole map is also a bit unbalanced by itself.

All this is of course not really applicable if it's just meant to be a unit rally chance on a pulse, but in that case applying unbreakable doesn't seem to rally broken units so you might have to find a different effect to do that.

Edit: Did some more tinkering and it seems Yan Liang's Frenzy ability is applying to all allied units on the battlefield rather than just himself because the effect range/num effected friendly units in unit_special_abilities_tables are set to -1 rather than 0. Which seems unintended based on the flavor of the ability?

--------

Amazing mod otherwise, hope you keep updating it!

Hey, thanks for the research ! Do you know if it's something that can be corrected simply by modifying some files ? If so, can you tell which of them and how ?
