"I am successful. Now Ordwald and his lackeys seek to slay me and drink my blood. They believe it will transform them as the vial transformed me. They will never drink my blood. I will be the one to drink their blood."
Mutare

Blood Thirsty is the fourth and final scenario of the Dragon's Blood campaign in Heroes of Might and Magic III: Armageddon's Blade.

Walkthrough[]

Once again you must crush your enemies before they crush you. If Mutare dies then all is lost. With your two best aides this will still be a difficult battle.OffBck

Mutare, who upon drinking the sacred blood of the Dragon Father, has transformed into a dragon herself. Ordwald, still angry about his recent defeat, has lied to three nobles that if they were to drink Mutare's blood, they would become dragons themselves. Mutare plans to do the same thing on them. She, along with her two close allies, have one Dungeon, Bat Fang, below Ordwald's and his lackeys' castles, though additional two Dungeons, to northwest and southeast, can be captured. She also learns that two nobles have allied themselves, making her victory harder.

East from Bat Fang lie some level 7 creatures. Upon defeating them and walking towards the monolith one-way exit, Mutare can add some additional creatures, which are her reinforcements. In addition, Mutare can challenge the two Dragon Utopia buildings, which are located near the subterranean gates. Knowing Ordwald's lies can leave Mutare with too many enemies trying to drink her blood, she hires a sage and pays him with two mercury and five sulfur, crystals and gems. Soon, she tells Miah a counter-lie: drinking her blood only makes people sick.

Once all four enemies have been defeated and all their towns captured, Mutare the Dragon is glad she got rid of Ordwald and her ambitions rise: to conquer Nighon itself!

Strategy[]

While Mutare stays to accumulate armies, one hero should head north and the other south. As time passes, they should defend the lands and build towns before they launch a counter-attack. Considering the enemies are much tougher, Mutare should make sure to attack them personally, for her allied heroes may have a difficult time defeating them. Once enough army has been gathered, Mutare should attack towns, one by one, making also sure that if enemy hero were to be overpowering to receive reinforcements to take them on.
