I used to love heroes 3 (I use the term 'used' simply because I've not played it in years) however I tried heroes V and disciples 2 this past year and disliked both of them; found them very boring and simplistic (single player campaign for both). No clue what disciples 3 will be like but given how much I dlsliked 2 I'm not holding my fingers crossed.
I should probably go back and play homm 3 again and see if I still like it; just to see if i've changed or the above mentioned games are really soured. Anyways if you are looking for an interesting TBS game you might take a peak at elemental war (to be released in august). This game is looking wickedly good to me.
Fyi: comparing homm v to KB - I played KB-L and KB-AP both more than 10 full games (that's a huge number of hours) where as HOMM V I had to struggle to finish the campaign and one day I might try the two add ons (it was a steam bundle over christimas for the fullset).
Another game you might consider is Eschalon book 2 (indie game). Anyways hopefully crossroads will come out soon. I plan to go back and play KBL again one of these days when time permits; had sort of hoped the editor would work with both games as I like the spell tweaks in KB-Ap but sort of prefer the rage chest and story as a whole in KB-L.
