Warlords Battlecry III isn't really going to surprise anyone for what it is. For the most part, it will remain as its predecessors have been. At the heart of this real-time strategy series sit fairly robust role-playing elements. Before a player can jump into the campaign, multiplayer, or skirmish, a hero must be created. This hero is persistent from game to game and will rise in experience as games are played and enemies are vanquished. Creating a hero is an easy thing aside from having to make a decision from the huge amounts of hero professions.
