Might and Magic. All of it.
I made a webpage. It's not pretty (nothing but text, no graphics of any kind), but it gets the job done. It lists all 36 games in the series (depending on how and what you count), has links to every known patch and demo (over 50 of 'em), and not much else.
If my site is helpful, let me know. If it isn't, let me know that too and I'll take it down and kill this thread.

Ugh. I keep forgetting. What looks fine in IE probably doesn't work on anything else, even another's IE. *sigh* Is your browser blocking color changes? It should be white text on a black background with cyan links.
I changed the basefont tag to just font. Maybe that'll work. I'm not too good at writing HTML, which is the other reason I have a bland site.

I've just gotta ask: the links to the patches, they're not to some gamespy site, are they? Cos my gamespy profile don't work, and I've got to get my hands on a patch to H3. I'm desperate!

Terje:
Well, most of my links point to FilePlanet, which is a GameSpy site. Are you running a firewall, or blocking cookies? That could be the culprit. I wouldn't be surprised if blocking popups kept you from logging in. *grumble*
[url=http://dynamic3.gamespy.com/~homm/index.php]Celestial Heavens[/url] has H3 links too, but it seems to be down at the moment. CH is also on GameSpy, and links to FilePlanet, but I don't think you need to log in. I could be wrong about that..
You could try [url=http://www.gamespot.com]GameSpot[/url], but not only do you need to log in, you're forced to install some sort of peer to peer program before you can download anything.
All the other patch sites I've found just point to 3DO's ftp site, which is, of course, dead.
Mitzah: Er.. What stories? *confused blink*
Frick: "Only" 8 Chronicles. Final Chapters is a bundle for the last two. And the first 6 you can get pretty cheap. 4 through eBay, 2 through download. FC was the tough one for me to find.
All: Thanks for the kind words about my site (once you could actually read it..) Keep 'em coming! And let me know what else I should add, if anything. I'd like it to be a one-stop-shopping place, without stepping on the toes of other sites, and without violating the Community's CoC. (Meaning, you won't find links to no-cd cracks and the like.)

Hmm, well, I guess there's no other way out than to try to re-register...
Thanks anyway!

This is fun! Since no one told me it sucks yet, I added a little more. There are troubleshooting and links pages now. What else should I add?

Right on, Kuma.
And I found a good use for the site already! Now I know how many Chronicles there is! Now the collection can begin... Yeah, like that's possible.

Hmm.. Looks like they made the Playstation version, but not the PC version. PC was released November '99. Any idea when PSX was made?
