A Galactic Conflict Unfolds
Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II continues the story established in its predecessor, setting the stage on a forge world where the activities of the Adeptus Mechanicus have inadvertently awakened the ancient Necrons. These Necrons, led by Vargard Neferkhah, are now determined to reclaim their world from the invaders. Opposing them are the Tech-Priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus, under the command of Magos-Dominus Faustinius, who are equally resolute in pursuing their own objectives on the planet.
Both the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Necrons feature distinct story campaigns and unique gameplay elements. Players will need to master the abilities of their controlled units, utilizing them effectively across a variety of maps that boast destructible environments. This promises to add a dynamic layer to the tactical combat, requiring players to adapt their strategies based on the changing battlefield.
