The back of Heroes of Might and Magic V: Hammers of Fate makes the following bold claims: It involves experimenting with a new 'thing' I've heard about from the chattering classes of the Internet. So now we've got someone who doesn't dig the game trying to recommend whether this is actually a decent purchase for someone who wants more of Heroes.

This clearly involved playing the original to get a sense of the game before moving onto this new collection of Mightiness and (er) Magiciness. Liking the genre and encouraged by my dear friend Egon Superb's 8/10 review, I was looking for an excuse to play it, so offered to 'do' the add-on pack. As in its prequels, it alternates between exploring a map and collecting various magical gubbins and playing out the skirmishes in a chess-like fashion (with masses of character advancement and army recruiting inbetween). Heroes and Might of Magic V is the (PC) chart-topping turn-based exploration/strategy game. This one's thrown up special ones all of its own. Reviewing add-on packs is always problematic.
