'''Heroes of Might and Magic III''' is a turn-based strategy game pitting armies of wizards, gremlins, demons, dragons and other magical creatures against each other. Each player begins with a single town, which can be expanded and improved to over the course of the game. The towns contain creature dwellings from which the player's heroes recruit warriors to battle their enemies with. In the original game, there are eight different towns, and with Armageddon's Blade a ninth, conflux, was introduced. | |||

Two expansion packs were released to complement the original game: [[/Armageddon's Blade/]] ([[September 30]], [[1999]]), and [[/The Shadow of Death/]] ([[March 31 2000]]).
