Heroes Chronicles: The Sword of Frost vs Heroes Chronicles: Warlords of the Wasteland

In this eighth installment, Tarnum seeks to become the Dungeon Overlord of Nighon to prevent his former ally Gelu from destroying the Sword of Frost. The story weaves political intrigue, betrayals, and the looming prophecy that the meeting of two mighty swords could end the world. The campaign continues the legacy of Heroes Chronicles with turn‑based battles, a cast of memorable characters, and the dark choices Tarnum must make as he commands brutal dungeon creatures while confronting elves, medusas, and rival heroes.
