Shogun 2 will keep me happy for a long while though, and perhaps we'll soon get a Rome 2 or a Medieval 3 or perhaps even a Crusader Total War I'm still waiting for CA to wow me. After Rome, MT2W and ETW, I will only be satisfied if they IMPROVE the experience and gameplay. Rather than a single race, The Greenskins are a conglomeration of smaller sub-races, banded together by their like-minded brutality, lack of intelligence and lust for carnage.

After Rome, MT2W and ETW, I will only be satisfied if they IMPROVE the experience and gameplay. Well it's the Rome 2 is still the newest Total War game in that specific Setting, and it's more new Total War game from the other Total War games that you have, outside of Total War: Warhammer Trilogy. CA was also adding new things for Rome 2 not so long ago, even after all those years.
Total War: Warhammer 2 (TWW2, WH2) is a turn-based/real-time strategy video game developed by Creative Assembly and published by SEGA, set in the Warhammer Fantasy world by Games Workshop. It is a sequel to Total War: Warhammer, and will be followed by Total War: Warhammer III. The game introduces five new playable races: High Elves, Lizardmen, Dark Elves, Skaven and Tomb Kings. There are also two new campaigns called Eye of the Vortex and Mortal Empires, as well as many other new features.
Total War: Warhammer II launched worldwide on September 28th, 2017.
Background[edit | edit source]
Millennia ago, besieged by a Chaos invasion, a conclave of High Elf mages forged a vast, arcane vortex. Its purpose was to draw the Winds of Magic from the world as a sinkhole drains an ocean, and blast the Daemonic hordes back to the Realm of Chaos. Now the Great Vortex falters, and the world again stands at the brink of ruin. Powerful forces move to heal the maelstrom and avert catastrophe. Yet others seek to harness its terrible energies for their own bitter purpose. The race is on, and the very fate of the world will lie in the hands of the victor.
Prince Tyrion, Defender of Ulthuan, guides the High Elves in their desperate efforts to stabilise the vortex as it roils above their home continent. Atop his palanquin-throne, the Slann Mage-PriestMazdamundi directs his Lizardmen war-hosts as they surge northward from Lustria. He, too, is intent on preventing cataclysm, though the methods of The Old Ones must prevail. The Witch King Malekith and his sadistic Dark Elf hordes spew forth from Naggaroth and their labyrinthine Black Arks. He tastes great weakness in the vortex – and great opportunity in its demise. Meanwhile a fourth, secretive race stirs, their motives obscured by sinister plots and machinations. The time for revelation is nigh...
Four races, four outcomes, a single goal: control of the Great Vortex, for good or ill.
Gameplay[edit | edit source]
- For a detailed gameplay overview, see the main page of this wiki.
The second in a trilogy and sequel to the award-winning Total War: WARHAMMER, Total War: WARHAMMER II brings players a breathtaking new narrative campaign, set across the vast continents of Lustria, Ulthuan, Naggaroth and The Southlands. The Great Vortex Campaign builds pace to culminate in a definitive and climactic endgame, an experience unlike any other Total War title to date.
Playing as a Legendary Lord from Warhammer Fantasy Battles, players must succeed in performing a series of powerful arcane rituals in order to stabilise or disrupt The Great Vortex, while foiling the progress of the other races. Each Legendary Lord has a unique geographical starting position, and each race offers a distinctive new playstyle with unique campaign mechanics, narrative, methods of war, armies, monsters, Lores of Magic, legendary characters, and staggering new battlefield bombardment abilities.
Shortly after launch, owners of both the original game and Total War™ WARHAMMER II will gain access to the colossal new combined campaign (Mortal Empires). Merging the landmasses of The Old World plus Naggaroth, Lustria, Ulthuan and the Southlands into a single epic map, players may embark on monumental campaigns as any owned Race from both titles.
