Might and Magic Heroes VI Campaign Selection

The tutorial campaign consists of just two maps. After completing it, you will unlock five new campaigns: Necropolis, Haven, Sanctuary, Inferno, and Stronghold.

What order should I do these campaigns in?

These campaigns can be done in any order, you don't have to do them from left to right. You don't even have to finish one before starting the other, you can do one map from one campaign, then do another map from a second campaign, and so on.

 HOWEVER, for the most rewarding story experience, we strongly recommend you do the maps in the following order (Thanks to our readers Jordan and Matthew who sent us this information):

Necropolis Campaign - In the Wake of Adversity
Nobody foresaw the Assassination of Slava Griffin by his youngest daughter, Anastasya. In spite of the intervention of her mentor, the Archangel Uriel, pledging the crime was not of her own willing, she was summarily executed by her elder brother Anton but brought back as one of the unliving by her great-aunt, the Necromancer Svetlana. Looking for answers, Anastasya sneaks in the very heart of the Holy Inquisition which is said to have captured the faceless responsible for manipulating her.

Start Point: Castelrose, the Fortress of the Inquisition

Anastasya's Background Story:
Anastasya is the youngest daughter of Duke Slava and Duchess Cate of Griffin, and the twin-sister of Kiril with whom she shares a deep bond, despite long years of relative separation (they studied under different tutors at the behest of the Emperor)
Charming, happy,  trusting... she would have been all these things had it not been for a single accursed moment: the assassination of her father by her own hand.
In spite of the intervention of her mentor, the legendary Archangel Uriel, pledging the crime was not of her own willing, she is delivered to the holy inquisition and summarily executed by her elder brother Anton.
She only becomes aware of these bleak events when she is brought back as one of the unliving by her great aunt sveltana, a practitioner of the mysterious arts of necromancy.
Shocked and disbelieving, Anastasya's fledgling denial rapidly transforms to grim acceptance and then into a cold, burning desire to clear her name by discovering who manipulated her, and how.

Haven Campaign - Something is Rotten
Bitter at the political maneuverings that saw his sister, Irina, forced to wed the despicable Duke Gerhart of the Wolf Duchy,  Anton's brooding is only broken when his father Slava is shockingly murdered at the hand of his other daughter, Anastasya. The mysterious voices that plagued his early years but had been eventually muted with the help of Jorgen, one of his father's councilors, return and blame the Faceless. Knowing he will now never resolve his differences with his father, Anton begins his crusade against the Faceless.

Start point: Barony of Stormgrad

Anton's Background Story:
First legitimate child of Duke Slava and Duchess Cate of Griffin, through his childhood Anton enjoyed all the privileges - and sacrifices - such a position bestows.

Bitter, but unable to confront his father for his staunch fidelity to the emperor, Anton's brooding is only broken when Slava is shockingly murdered at the hand of his other daughter, Anastasya.
With the old voices back and blaming the faceless, and knowing he will now never resolve his differences with his father, the newly crowned duke is a very angry and vengeful Griffin.

Sanctuary Campaign - The Fury and the Mire
Feisty and headstrong, Irina's already limited tolerance for her assigned role in Imperial society was broken the day she was forcibly betrothed to Gerhart, the odious Duke of Wolf. Imprisoned in the Wolf's fetid dungeons after maiming Gerhart during the wedding night, Irina was determined to die rather then apologise to the tyrant. But she was freed by Sandor, and they both escaped to the south-eastern islands of the Jade Ocean. Irina finds herself a stranger in a strange land, but with the means to get her revenge on Gerhart and the Holy Emperor himself.

Starting point: Banteki Reef

Irina's Background Story
Sewing, music, poetry. Irina, the eldest daughter of Duke Slava and Duchess Cate of Griffin, couldn't care less about these traditional female pursuits.

Inferno Campaign - Angel, Angel, Burning Bright

Like most twins, they share a deep bond and despite long years of separation, Kiril still feels a strong affinity for her.

A quick learner with a dark, dry sense of humor and an appreciation of the absurd, Kiril's imposed distance from Anastasya was much alleviated by studying under the legendary Archangel, Sarah whom he greatly respects and adores - and who in return admires him.
When he witnesses a magically-controlled Anastasya slay their own father, Kiril's rage is tempered by Sarah who provides him with strength as well as a risky plan to descend into Sheogh...
