The Cove is a town representing the Regnan Empire which is often mentioned in Might and Magic VI and Might and Magic VII, and featured in Might and Magic VIII as the Regna Island location. The Cove faction was added to the game Might & Magic Heroes: Era of Chaos in an update in November 2020.
Moreover, it saves the original game's functionality, unlike the VCMI platform, and is fully standalone, meaning it does not interfere with the original game, and they can both be run normally once HotA is installed. Unlike WoG-based modifications, HotA provides a complete tenth castle without replacing any of the existing ones. The Cove is the tenth castle which is a calling card of the project. 2.1 New factions: Forge, Cathedral, Kronverk.It has its own story and adds so much that I suggest people try it AFTER playing everything else. In The Wake of Gods is basically HOMM 3.9, they added a crazy amount of content and I always recommend it to anyone who loved 3.
Almost everyone agrees that they nailed it. The former is basically a team doing their best to make an expansion that would continue the story and tried to make it as "Official" looking and playing as possible. Horn of the Abyss and In the Wake of Gods are two fan-made expansions that I highly recommend. HD Edition looks beautiful, but it does not contain the expansion packs.įor mods there is HOMM 3 HD, unfortunately it does not work with Chronicles but it does work with Complete, Horn of the Abyss, and Wake of Gods. The gameplay/graphics are basically the same of 3. This CAN be skipped but I recommend it solely because the protagonist is great and I enjoyed how connected the campaigns are.
You start with Heroes Chronicles, the campaigns are a prequel to HOMM3 and they're a great way to get you into the games since the campaigns are slightly easier than 3.
