Achievement Info
Old adventures in a new vision — return to an exciting adventure from the universe of Sword and Magic and walk again along familiar paths for the sake of exciting challenges, grand victories and great achievements.

"Argh,♥♥♥♥, here we go again".
M&M: Clash of Heroes - Definitive Edition got the same Steam achievements as the original game. I got 100% there and I`m sure I can do that again.



Even more: I can tell you how to do like that too so keep closer, achievement hunter!


Look under every stone.
About half of the game's achievements require you to complete story missions and some side activities. It can be combat puzzles, searching for secrets, discovering new combat units and much more.

Every time you start a new campaign, go to all the places you can, return to the old locations and look for secret paths. The game will reward you with both gameplay and Steam achievements.


Fight smart
There will be a lot of fighting in the game and it can often happen that the most simple tactics are not the most effective.



At the end of the day, the game itself is one big puzzle so think, calculate and develop strategies that will help you achieve victories, as well as unusual combat moves that will unlock a number of achievements for you.


Fight against other players
The game has several multiplayer achievements that may require the participation of other players. Feel free to team up and even look for a comrade right in the comments to this guide: ask and offer your help!

Spoiler Alert
The game is already quite old, so fans of the Might and Magic series have probably played it more than once, but at one time this game did not gain much popularity, so it is highly expected to see new people here who are not familiar with the game, and therefore do not know its story and plot twists.

I want to warn you that there may be very serious spoilers in the guide. If you want to avoid them, then come back later, this guide will be waiting for you.

Young Hero


This is the first achievement you should unlock during the Singleplayer.
Start Sylvan Campaing and defeat demon troops right after you save Pixie.

Hero of Might and Magic


This achievement can be easily obtained if you carefully play through the game and do not miss the opportunities that are offered in each campaign.

You will complete the main quests simply by following the story, but as for the side quests, it is worth considering what they include: defeating specific opponents, solving combat puzzles, eliminating bounty targets.

You will not be able to return to any part of the campaign after it is completed (Only after beating the entire game), so do everything here and now, save often and press the SHIFT key to view the current list of main and side quests. Always make a save right before the battle with campaing boss, cause you will always have opportunity to retreat and collect everything you missed.



Below you will find a list of tasks for each campaign, so you don't miss anything important.
Unstoppable Army


The most annoying achievement in the game, that's why I always try to get it as early as possible. This can be done in Godric's campaign (Human Campaign).

So you have 3 types of basic units and 5 more special creatures (one of them is secret). Every time they take part in a battle, they gain experience and increase their level. Therefore, the maximum level of a hero is 10, and the maximum level of any creature is 5.

Not all creatures come under your control right away; the stronger they are, the later in the campaign they appear, and in addition, in each campaign there is a secret creature that also must first be found and only then upgraded to level 5.



Your task is to ensure that as soon as the amount of your special creatures (which are bought in special buildings) does not fall to zero, otherwise they will not get XP for the battle, and also change them to another creature as soon as they reach the maximum level.

Two special creatures can take part in a battle at once, which will complicate the battles, but will speed up their leveling. However, even in this case, the experience in the campaign may not be enough to level up all the creatures to the maximum level, even if you carefully distributed the experience and completed all the additional tasks and battles. What do we do with this?

Starting from Godric’s campaign, in some locations your hero may be accidentally attacked by enemy units that were not placed on the map. When such a sudden attack happens, you hear a sharp sound and you have a couple of seconds to press the button to avoid the battle. If this is not done, then you will have to fight with the enemy squad.


Through such battles you can get the required amount of XP for creatures that you did not manage to upgrade to the level 5 before the final battle with the boss of the campaign. It is also not necessary to reach the last level just before the battle with the boss, for defeating which you will receive 1500 XP. Therefore, two of your creatures may have level 4, but if level 5 is can be reached less than 1500 XP, then you can safely enter the battle. You will receive the achievement as soon as you defeat the boss.



P.S.
It is absolutely unnecessary to unlock this achievement in Godric’s campaign; using the same principle, you can get the achievement in the three subsequent campaigns: for the necropolis, demons and academy, but it seems to me that the easiest and fastest way to do this is in this campaign.
Skilled Strategist
Bounty Hunter


There are 5 bounty targets in each campaign, with the exception of the last campaign, the Academy.

Thus, to obtain achievements, you have to find and defeat 20 opponents, as well as gain a reward for them. As you progress through the story in one campaign, the Agent will have more and more new bounty targets, so you can take all 5 tasks at once, complete them and get the reward simultaneously.



Even if you found a bounty target character, but you did not take an order for him, then there will be a question mark above his head and when you click on it there will be a short dialogue. If you took the order, then a symbol of a bag of money will appear above the character's head and now you can fight him.

Sir-Links-a-Lot


This achievement can be unlocked not only in a single-player campaign or multiplayer, but also in 1v1 hotseat mode which is much easier.

A chain attack is obtained when you charge several quads of the same color to attack in such a way that they attack in one turn. The number of moves to attack for each creature is different, but one way or another you have to make sure that 5 different squads link into a chain attack, that is, they attack through the same number of moves.

Remember that forming squads and walls without moving troops directly rewards you with extra turn points, which can be very useful for this achievement. In general, I advise you to prepare in advance and put the necessary troops of a certain color in such a way that then they can be charged immediately in one move.

As you can see on screenshots below I got Nightmare squad charged with 3 turns left and I got lots of Imps of the same color almost prepared to be charged at once. Their attack also charges 3 turns so on the second screenshot I got Nightmare and 4 Imp squads linked together.

Age
Fusion Fanatic


This achievement can be unlocked not only in a single-player campaign or multiplayer, but also in 1v1 hotseat mode which is much easier.

Fusion is the ability of your units of the same color to merge into one another for a more powerful and faster attack. This can be done with any type of units, the main thing is that there are enough of them in quantity.

First, charge any squad to attack, then assemble another squad of the same color right behind it — as soon as this happens, the rear squad will merge with the front. This will increase the attack power, but at the same time leave the number of moves before the attack as the front squad. The attack bar of the squad with the Fuse turns golden.

To get the achievement, you will need to pull off the trick with the Fuse twice, i.e. merge the units of the same color twice in this way.


Overkill


This achievement can be unlocked not only in a single-player campaign or multiplayer, but also in 1v1 hotseat mode which is much easier.

For this achievement, it is necessary to deal an additional 100 damage points after the enemy has already received fatal damage. You can reduce the enemy's health to the lowest level as you can (1-5 HP points), and then charge the attack of an elite creature, which by its strength is capable of dealing more than 100 damage per attack.

As you can see below I got 3 chained squads and my enemy got low HP. As long as my chained troops attack together their power grows more so my Swordsmen do enough damage to kill enemy hero and my Sword Master deals his 104 dagame poins as additional overkill.

Transforms random enemy core units and walls into food. On the following turn, Carlyle consumes each piece of food and spits them back at the enemy Hero as blasts of bile.

Azh Rafir
Summons the hands of Lord Bloodcrown to fire two mighty palm blasts at the enemy.
Azexes
Conjures a 2 column wide portal in his endzone for one turn. Enemy attacks that enter the portal are launched back at the enemy Hero on the next turn with 50% attack PWR.

Legend of Battles


An easy achievement that will require only time and nothing more.

In multiplayer, your profile has a level that increases due to the experience that you get both for defeating other players and for losing. Just for winning give more experience points and therefore the progression will go faster. Experience is awarded only after the end of the battle. Just fight with other players and it doesn't matter which hero or race you choose — the profile level in MP will be shared.

As soon as you reach the 10th level, the achievement will be yours.

Team Player


The hardest achievement in the game. But its difficulty is not in the conditions for obtaining it, but in the fact that here you will need to have three more friends who can help you with this achievement.

Online at the original version of the game was extremely low and unfortunately in the new version this problem was not solved. Even if you try to create a battle in 2x2 mode, you will have to wait very long for someone to join and agree to wait for other players for a long time as well.

There is still no chat in the game lobby and in general communication within the game is almost impossible, so use the Steam overlay. Now let's move on to the essence of the achievement. The game has a 2vs2 mode, each player chooses a commander, an artifact and elite creatures. Ordinary creatures will be shared by the team.



When you find yourself on the battlefield, the creatures of your team are divided into two colors, you can move and remove only creatures of your own color, as well as your ally. In the game itself, you can only give signals about which creatures you advise to move or remove, but this communication with a random person can still be problematic.



Your task under all these conditions is to defeat the same opponent team. Don't let your health drop to zero, put up walls, attack, use squad chain attacks and spend your moves wisely. In this mode, it is very important to have an understanding with your friend, because your action points can be enough for a lot if you manage them smart.

It is also worth considering that just the same, even incorrect moves by both yours and your friend can almost guarantee defeat.
