Hi,

Heroes III remains one of the few games (like Alien Crossfire, Star
Craft) that I can still play over and over again. This is partly
because of the good random map generator as well as downloadable maps.


When Heroes IV came out for Mac I heard that it was very buggy, kept
crashing etc, so I put off getting it and it eventually fell below my
'interest-radar'. Recently, I saw it being sold on ebay and my
interest was aroused again.

Anyone have any opinions on whether or not it is worth getting now?
Were the bugginess and crashing problems soved?

Kit

If you have a good relationship with someone you trust on this side, get
them to buy it for you and mail it to you. I got a copy of CM:BB for a
friend in the UK and we handled it that way. By virtue of repayment, he got
me a book of equal value. It was an excellent book too.
