About Warlords Battlecry
Warlords Battlecry blends Warlords heroes with base building across Etheria. The 2000 original spans 12 races with persistent heroes, II in 2002 widens to 12 tiers with Daemons, and III in 2004 adds 16 races with hero retinue and day night cycles.
Entries stand alone by campaign with no story order to follow. New players often start with III with Unofficial Patch for current lobbies, or II for GOG ease. Heroes never transfer across games, so skip eras freely after one full run with no prior save needed.
Good to know
Release order shows heroes grow from 4 levels to retinues, but start with III complete where possible. The original teaches resource shrines best, II runs widest with planes, and III plays newest with 16 races. Campaigns never share heroes, so skip eras freely after one full run. Treat III as the endpoint with servers community run.
