Indeed it was. I loved the original KB, it was excellent. I should mention that I also thoroughly enjoyed the HoMM series as well as the new KB games. I think the newest KB games improved on the combat mechanics (and other things) enough that I now officially like them more than any of the the HoMM titles, though HoMM obviously has strategic elements that KB does not possess.
