Heroes of Might & Magic 2: The Succession Wars |
Strategy and Wargaming Game from New World Computing
Turn-based strategy/war game with major RPG component, set in a fantasy universe. Forces are led by heroes that develop skills through experience, as in a RPG. You must also develop your bases (castles and villages) and exploit and defend resources that enable you to build up your army. The game is played in a large world and is played through various screens, including maps and a hex-based combat screen. The game's premise is that two princes are fighting it out to see which one succeeds to the throne of their father. One is good and the other evil and this is well expressed in the differences between their unit design and the accompanying music. The game offers a choice of two campaigns, one for each side, with a total of some 25 scenarios. There is also an extensive selection of stand-alone scenarios that can be played against the computer or by up to six people by hotseating, modem or serial connection and LAN. The game boasts improved graphics and AI over its predecessor, although it is now a few years old.
