heya all

Does anyone know if this is stand alone or requires the original?

I did a little searching and found nothing concrete,

Yes im a sucker for HoMM even if it is bastardized a bit

Go forth proudly enjoying what you enjoy! Let not any naysayers affect your fun!

This message brought to you by someone who makes no apologies for wanting to play Ultima IX and Might and Magic IX. :D

Key Features:

- Standalone Expansion and Ideal Initiation: an ideal way to discover the critically acclaimed gameplay of Might & Magic Heroes VI. Shades of Darkness is a standalone expansion and ideal epic initiation for first time players.

As a fellow sucker for Heroes to another, do beware, as even the original game is an unfinished mess after all this time.

Ever since they revived the town screens there is an unresolved freeze problem. Not to mention that you can't even finish the tutorial without going easy mode because of bugs.
It's not a terrible game, just disappointing, It's as it never went out of beta.
Just beware buying it full price at release.

Dammit, should have looked on Steam.

Thankyou

So, how many shades of darkness are included in this "ideal initiation"?
