@PCGamesN Horn of the Abyss is an unofficial expansion for Heroes of Might and Magic 3 and it recently got a large update which you can download here.
More information.
HOMM 3 - Horn of the Abyss Huge Update
- Thread starter Silver
- Start date
Horn of the Abyss is a fantastic mod. I enjoy WoG just a little more because of the commanders and having units lvl. The pirate town in HotA is one of the funnest to play. They made great heroes for the pirates also. They also added a cannon 
I'd go even further than "great mod" and call it the ultimate version of Heroes of Might and Magic!
Most people would agree 3+expansions was the best version and this expansion adds a lot.
Spell research!!!

How do you know if the .exe download is infected or a trojan ?Also why is it an .exe isn't it just maps?

Hey you, it is a mod , not some maps, hence exe it is
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Spell research is more of an exchanging one for another, which you may be needing more, anyway it is extremely useful

The "observable future"™ has arrived!
Before the release notes here are a few clarifications:
- The update 1.5.1 is planned to come in the next few days, once we finish some minor content that didn't make it into the release
- We couldn't find the time to highlight some content from this release before it happened, but it will be done anyway.
- The official documentation is not yet fully updated - for now you can examine the full changelog below
This update is the biggest to happen since the beta-release. In shortest terms possible, here are only a few new additions:
+ Fully functional visual template editor that allows to create and edit Random Map Generator templates of the new extended HotA format.
+ New terrain for the Conflux town - Highlands. The first successfull attempt in adding the new terrain in the history of Heroes III add-ons and mods
+ New visitable objects and decorations unique to the Highlands terrain
+ Spell research. The mechanism that fixes the everpresent problem of Mage Guild: its inadequacy for providing spells, that the player actually needs.
+ Full differentiation of hero models by their class and gender both in and out of battle.
+ A feature that lets one pick the specific method of attack for certain creatures (like shooters, casters or Harpies).
