'''Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Restoration of Erathia''' 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: '''[[Heroes of Might and Magic III: Armageddon's Blade|Armageddon's Blade]]''' (September 30, [[1999]]), and '''[[Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Shadow of Death|The Shadow of Death]]''' (March 31, [[2000]]). A final compendium version, Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete, was released containing the original game and both expansions.
