Oh, and they're famous trade mark: anyone looking at them would be turned to stone (due to their extreme ugliness). Gorgons are a race of vile creatures that had hair of live snakes, necks covered with scales, they have tusks similiar to of a boar, golden hands and bronze wings. Now the Gorgon in Greek Mythology actually refered to a race known in Heroes as the Medusa. These bulls were later killed by famous Greek hero Jason, in his quest for the Golden Fleece. The Khalkotauroi were a pair of fire-breathing bulls forged from bronze by the Smith God Hephaistos as a gift for Aeetes, King of Kolkhis. In Greek mythology, the only creatures that closely fits this description are the Khalkotauroi. In Heroes, the Gorgon is a fire breathing/death staring Bull from the swamps. This refers particularly to: the Gorgon and the Medusa.
Heroes of Might and Magic III made a complete major screw-up in Greek Mythology.
Also new are war machines, a total of 122 artifacts, overhauled spell list, new and edited map locations, an alignment mechanic which affects interaction with some of the map locations and spells, and 7 single-player campaigns with a vast set of single scenarios which can be played against the AI or other human players. It features 8 entirely distinct towns with 7 creature levels each, but this time all creature levels (save for neutral-only ones) can be upgraded. The Restoration of Erathia retains the bulk of the gameplay from its predecessors, with significant additions and modifications.
Mustering local armies, Catherine marches to Erathia's capitol, restoring lost land along the way.
There she learns Erathia is falling to its enemies. Arriving on the coast of Erathia, Catherine finds an allied wizard's tower, devastated from battle and abandoned. Fearing the worst, she assembles a military fleet as her escort. Receiving news of her father's death, Catherine Ironfist, Queen of Enroth, sails for Erathia to attend her father's funeral. Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Restoration of Erathia takes place long after the ending of Heroes of Might and Magic II: Price of Loyalty and partially concurrently with Might and Magic VI: The Mandate of Heaven.
