Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus 2 - Official Announcement Trailer | Skulls 2024

The Necrons and Mechanicum return in Mechanicus 2.
In an exciting addition for the sequel, players will not just be battling as the Adeptus Mechanicus against the awakening of a Necron tomb world, but will also be able to fight as the Necrons for the resurgence of their dynasty , with both sides now fully playable over multiple campaigns.
Strategic gameplay is again at the forefront of the action, with players able to manage their territories’ garrisons and assemble forces for each mission, choosing from a vastly expanded selection of fighters from each faction’s range. New environmental mechanics will also require players to maneuver their forces like never before and play to their chosen faction’s strengths and weaknesses - take cover behind terrain as the Mechanicus, or destroy it as the Necrons.

Love how the dialog is so similar! Really emphasizes the relationship the AdMech and the Necrons have with one another

[@comack669]

It's a real "will they, won't they" relationship.

[@ethanduncan1646]

Admech and Necrons are one of the most fascinating relationships in 40k imo. They are so similar in so many ways yet fundamentally different that conflict is inevitable between the two. There is an actual clash of ideas and beliefs between the two that is more complex than Imperium vs Chaos routine.

[@TheArklyte]

For the best of everyone involved, hopefully "won't they". If AdMech, Necrons and Dark Eldar one day realise that they have a shared goal, everyone else is in trouble. ​@@comack669

From the moment I first witnessed the interlopers, they disgusted me. Eons we slumbered, waiting to reclaim our galaxy. Only for it to become infested with vermin, that proliferated in our absence. Now we awaken to retake what is ours. Wretched amalgamations of meat and metal, shackled to ignorance by your faith. Do you truly believe, you can stop us? We who have shattered our very gods, and enslaved them to our will. The stars were young, when our empire was ascendant. and when the last of them die, we alone will remain, for we are immortal.

OMFG! I love how this whole trailer was just one giant mirror of the original.
