Amazon.com Product Description
The Might and Magic role-playing series is almost as old as home computing itself. The Heroes Chronicles is a series of four story-driven strategy games set in the Might and Magic world and follows immortal hero Tarnum on separate adventures. In Clash of the Dragons, Mutare, the dragon queen, has been using her black, red, rust, crystal, and azure dragons to terrorize the woodland Rampart towns and send their 11 armies into retreat. You'll play Tarnum, who rides to the rescue of the frightened elves and helps turn the tables on the evil Mutare.

 Incredible Game! July 14, 2003

This game is amazing. You start off as a character named Tarnum. There are 8 scenarios, each beginning with animations that aren't too bad. At the beginning of the game you learn that the dragons that the immortal Tarnum used to live with are acting strangely. One day they disapeared. As you progress through the game you learn more and more about what is happening to the dragons, and you must fight dangerous creatures of all sorts to survive, collect artifacts to give you boosts in your skills, such as spell power, recruit armies of powerful creatures and fight an occasional battle with an enemy human. The battle scenes are probably the best part of the game. It is a role-playing game, so you must attack in turns, but this gives you time to devise plans, and it really comes down to the slightest moves to decide the outcome of the game. The graphics are beatifully done, and when you are playing it it really immerses you in the game. Clash of the Dragons is the only Heroes Chronicles game I have played of the quartet, but I really enjoyed it and recommend it completely!

Probably because I'm a longstanding adventure gamer, I love a good story better than anything else. The Heroes Chronicles series is the perfect marriage of story and strategy, a story better-told and more compelling than that in the campaigns found in the full-size games. If you want a good tale while you're busy crushing your enemies into dust, I highly recommend this series, of which CLASH OF THE DRAGONS is volume 3.
 Just a notice for intrested players April 3, 2001

I have played HoMM over since the orignal came out (could never get into Might and Magic though), and i enjoy stragity based games to where out of the fifty games 35 are stragity games and 14 are RPG and one action. When I looked into buying and playing this game i felt exicted for another chapter of HoMM. I felt a little let down after installing and playing for a small amount of time. The reason is that I could not get into the game only 'cause the little blurbs that came up every time I ended my turn. Now I liked the stroy lines, its just that I had problems planing my next turn. But the game still plays the same and contuines to build on the orignals.
It's a HOMM game, nothing more and nothing less... January 7, 2001

The Heroes of Might and Magic Chronicles series were mainly created for people who are new to the HoMM games. Therefore, as a veteran player ever since the first HoMM game, I found the campaign rather easy. However, if you've never played a HoMM game before, the chronicles series are an excellent place to begin (just make sure you know what you're getting into because you've got some sleepless nights ahead of you). Even for veteran players, if you set the difficulty on impossible, they may find this particular campaign enjoyable since the story is nicely woven and one can't help but wonder what lies next for our hero, Tarnum. The only thing that would make me hesitate in buying this product is the fact that my local software store is selling HoMM millenium edition (HoMM 1-3) for 19.99, which is a much better deal than paying the same price for one campaign.
its good not the best HOMM December 1, 2000
