The rating is 70%, and they state that the claims on the box are rather misleading: However, the game's box suggests that the expansion also has new creatures, new heroes, new items, and a new editor, which is a bit misleading. Yes, The Gathering Storm has new items and new event buildings you can find on the map. Yet the only new heroes you'll find in the game are those you play as in the campaigns, and the only new creatures in the game are those that belong to the game's main villain; they can't normally be recruited into your own ranks. And although The Gathering Storm has an updated map editor that includes the new items, buildings, and creatures, as well as all of the existing items from Heroes IV, your maps can be used only by players who also own the expansion--players who own only Heroes IV can't use them, so if you use the expansion's map editor to make new maps, and you play Heroes IV regularly with a group of friends, everyone else will have to buy and install the expansion too.
