Heroes Chronicles is a series of spinoff titles based on the Heroes of Might and Magic III game engine, including Heroes III scenarios. The scenarios were the only playable parts included; for features such as single maps, a map editor, or multiplayer, buying the original Heroes III was still required. The plot of the Chronicles was set on Antagarich, tied together by the character of Tarnum, who leads various armies and factions throughout them. The released Chronicles were: Warlords of the Wasteland (2000). Tarnum's original story, as a young Barbarian leading an uprising against the oppressive Wizard-Kings of Bracaduun. Conquest of the Underworld (2000). Tarnum's first adventure as the Immortal Hero as he adopts the guise of an Erathian Knight in a campaign against the Demons, Necromancers and Warlocks of the Underworld.
