Much-needed fantasy 4X
I admit first that I have never played Heroes of Might and Magic, primarily because I am not a massive fan of high fantasy (more a spaceships-and-lasers man). However, since buying this game on here a few months ago, I have been deeply addicted, and astounded by the variety given to the player. This variety takes the form of a ridiculous number of creatures, spells, terrain types, customisable trinkets for RPG-esque heroes, and an impressive (though not as limitless) supply of scenarios, and a map editor to boot. The only less-varied part is the city-building, which has largely common building types for all races, but this does not detract from the need to think about your supply lines and income. The AI is not infallible, and has a tendency to spam units, but that is not to say it doesn't provide a challenge - fighting off superior numbers with clever positioning, spell casting and use of abilities is immensely satisfying. Sieges, although repetitive, showcase the variety of this game nicely, as there are many different ways of attacking or circumventing city walls. My only other niggle is the immense size of the campaign maps - it can take ages to reach an objective, for which the triggers aren't necessarily obvious, only to realise that the next one is all the way back over where you just came from, or at the end of a tunnel you missed somewhere along the way. To summarise, this is a must-have for any 4X lover, and has immense replayability thanks to the skirmish-type scenarios alongside the main campaign. I won't give this an emphatic 'must have' status because the campaign isn't perfect, but I give it 5 stars because *I* like it a lot.
