Unlike other Might and Magic games, Legends of Might and Magic is mainly a multiplayer game. When it was released, reviews likened it to a medieval Counter-Strike. Unlike Counter-Strike, however, Legends featured neutral monsters controlled by the computer. The game suffered from several flaws, including poorly-implemented melee combat, unbalanced classes, and poor artificial intelligence. Image File history File links Legends_of_Might_and_Magic. ...

Game types
The multiplayer mode of Legends of Might and Magic features four different modes: - Sword in the Stone: Both teams battle over a sword. Whichever team can take the sword out of the zone wins the match.
- Rescue the Princess: The good team must try to save a princess who is guarded by the evil team. This mode is similar to the hostage rescue mode in Counter-Strike.
- Warlord Escape: A player assumes the role of the warlord, who must be escorted to safety. This is nearly identical to the VIP missions in Counter-Strike.
- Slay the Dragon: Both teams battle in a map containing a fire-breathing dragon. The team that kills the dragon wins the match.
