Apothecary Battle Elixir

Apothecary Battle Elixir

Requires Apothecary (Continued) and Harmony. Apothecary’s elixirs cover pain, calm, and focus — but nothing quite fills the “medieval go-juice” niche. This adds Elixir of Valor: a herbal war draught for fights, weaker than industrial go-juice but kinder on the body.

What this adds

• Elixir of Valor — craft at the apothecary table (research: Elixirs)
• Recipe: henbane oil, ginseng powder, ginger root, wormwood oil
• ~Half-day combat high: strong painkill, +Moving / Sight / Consciousness
• Safer than go-juice (lower addictiveness, tiny overdose risk, no berserk) — also less potent
• Multi-select: drafted colonists carrying Valor show the normal bottom-bar Drink command (same place as smoke pop / lances)

Notes

• Load after Apothecary (Continued)
• Weaker buffs than industrial go-juice; herbal tradeoff is safety, not power
• Uses a red-tinted Calming elixir graphic (no new art asset)
