Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II escalates the conflict between the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Necrons after Vargard Nefershah rouses her dynasty's legions to wipe out the interlopers who unwittingly settled on her world. Magos Dominus Faustinius returns, summoned to lend his hard-won expertise to the effort to stop the Necrons, and the struggle soon widens into a crucible drawing in stranger and deadlier outside forces. Two playable factions, two narrative campaigns, and two distinct playstyles leave you with one crucial choice: whom will you lead to victory in this cold war of metal and hatred?
Blending action, RPG, and strategy, the game centers on intense turn-based tactical battles where mastering each faction's unique abilities and roster of combatants is essential. New environmental mechanics demand fresh maneuvering, letting you take cover behind terrain as the Mechanicus or destroy it as the Necrons, playing to each side's strengths and weaknesses. You fight for control of an entire world, capturing and defending regions while generating and managing vital resources, racing against the Sankhotep dynasty's global awakening as the Mechanicus or defending your people's tombs as the Necrons. It all makes for a deep tactical Warhammer experience on PC.
