Creature

Creature is general word for all entities a hero can encounter or hire in Heroes of Might and Magic III. It can be interchangeably used with unit, troop or monster. However, the original manual uses the word 'creature'.

In the adventure map creatures appear in stacks. A player can not see exactly how many creatures there are, but he can see a rough estimation.
