Is this medicine named what I think it is? Suicidium?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

If so, why would you need 2 refills?

Also, how do I make the image less gigantic?

Add something like height=640 into the img tag to resize the image, it should keep the same ratio.

I did not. I am sure I had 100% warscore. There is a chance I misclicked and sent White Peace instead of Enforce Demands, but I do not think so. I think it is because he was now a duchy level title, same as I, so he could not be my vassal.

Edit: Oops, already said.
        Well, why does it offer these weak claims on duchies when I am duke level then? I assumed I would get the duchy title and the guy would get the lower titles.

It is handy for disposing of people you don't like and put someone friendly on the throne or for weakening other realms or spreading your dynasty. I will quite happily spread my family inside a realm if I'm a vassal even if they would be independent from me.

If you want to gain territory then you should look to your character's claims or holy wars. The latter I know can be part blocked by other realms besieging the target resulting in you only gaining baronies or just the county capital.

I declared holy war against the muslim king of Lithuania for control over the duchy (and county) of Man and won, but didn't gain control of the duchy. He held both titles, which means I should have gained the county, but... I didn't. So now I'm stuck in a ten year truce with him.

Crusader Kings 2

A similar thing happened to me today. I am the Jarl of Albany and Connacht (Norwegians conquered Scotland, then I inherited Connacht.). I pressed some dude's weak claim on the Petty Kingdom of Ulster. The war declaration window said, that he would become my vassal when I win. He did not. I helped him get the throne and got nothing out of it.
I guess pressing other people's weak claims and declaring holy war over titles of the same value as is your highest title just does not work.

Vassals cannot be the same tier as you but holy wars should take counties regardless even when a count attacks an emperor.

Birb makes me think of an angry Scottish Wren, small but not to be underestimated in addition to being very very angry.

AI War 2 and Rimworld. I suppose that would be the mechanoid war.

I remember watching a guy mildly complaining when his ship was being hit with stale baguettes in World of Warships. He seemed more annoyed by a Minnesota class (iirc) lobbing freight trains at him.

Having your ship taken out in one volley is always a pain no matter the game.

That Gauss cannon has low accuracy anyway so the minor boost the FC will give over a smaller one won't really help much. Much better for things like 10cm UV lasers with a 300k FC because you can hit at fairly reliably at the max range for the laser whereas a max range Gauss cannon is 60k.

No, wrong type of wee.

This is the Nintendo one.

Edit: Outside of joking, does this mean that the word 'wee' doesn't frequently enter parlance outside Northern Britain?
The game system is the Wii with two i’s, not e’s. This is why confusion happened
Its more the fact that Dwarfy meant "wee" as in "small" which is largely more of a British/Scottish/Irish thing and not commonplace outside of the Isles.

I did check the log, except so much time must have happened that it no longer appeared in the log. And unless the ship died during a training session, it could not have been a maintenance failure in port. I did pay attention to the event log popups for ship maintenance failures, but it's entirely possible I missed something, for example during the bi-annual officer shuffle.

And does the port in question have the maintenance capacity for a ship that size? Also a ship can sometimes not be were the task group is and thus not be in port when the others are, and I have had situations where the immobile PDCs managed to move around (slowly) and thus not be where they should be.

Europa is in the same group of habitable moons as Io, so it will be doable with less than 2atm total. Greenhouse gasses are worth 3x normal gasses iirc. I tend to just use O2 C02 and Nitrogen in different amounts and aim for 0.2atm Oxygen. And I usually colonise one or more of those moons, then use gene conversion to make a cold adapted subrace for other worlds/moons like that.

I've noticed that sometimes fire controls don't function and have 0 range, no idea why. SM mode can be used to replace the bugged FC because you did research it legit so why not get a fully functioning FC?

Elves have a tendency to bring accurate missile fire to a fight, lots of it too. The lack of armour and shields combined with being large targets it is unsurprising the elves beat them.

As for the raiding, yeah that is hard to ignore. Bad luck they spawned on top of you.

Chaos trolls and a cygor? Thats one of those independent armies with crazy recruitment choices. Don't think you are meant to attack them early on.
