I added it, wasn’t sure how to list it since it doesn’t have a name.

Are other published HQ Quests of interest? Eyes of Chaos from WD features a Chaos Sorcerer in possession of "a bottle of a magical green liquid" that can restore up to 3 Body Points.

Inn of Chaos from Adventures Unlimited also contains a bottle with "a magical green liquid" that restores up to 3 Body Points in a concealed room.

In Drago Brasil, Quest 1 of The Slave City has a Potion of Healing that restores up to 3 Body Points. In addition, Quest 5 has Orc food that will restore 1 Body Point to the Dwarf only.

All three potions heal up to 3 Body Points . . . curious.

Then there's the Japanese game . . .

Ah yes, Japanese game system has Potion of Healing (2 BP) purchasable from the Armory for 200 gold coins [corrected price]. And a Treasure Card Potion of Healing that restores 3 BP.

bastianbux is the only version I’ve found and those do not exist that I’ve seen.

Made updates. I forgot the special quests. I don’t think Orc food (whatever that means) would count.

It's more of a conceptual armory (which sells and can buy back items) than an actual board, but the cards absolutely exist. Since the files (kudos to the original scanner) are so huge, I'll just link relevant snips here (and it's 200, I was mistaken). I don't read Japanese, but I get the basics of the numbers on there and from what others have translated.

Is it possible it says half flask for 2 BP? There’s versions of that I think it was the GS.

AerynB also translated the game, and she had studied Japanese. From this post:

AerynB wrote:. . . Also, there is no Battle Axe in the Equipment cards but the Broadsword attacks with 4 dice and costs 500 gold. It's also a Barbarian-only weapon. Platemail is also Barbarian only, 4 defend dice, and apparently does not have a movement penalty (I need to look into that though). Not only that, but you can BUY 2BP-Healing Potions, though you may have to sacrifice your movement phase to drink it (not sure on that either). In the treasure deck, there seems to be a 4BP-Healing Potion card and a 3BP-Healing Potion card too.. . .
