Three years of peace have followed Queen Mercia and her allies' victory over the ancient adversaries that threatened Aurania. The calm ends when a foreign faction begins unearthing forbidden technologies that the old civilizations buried for reasons that were probably good. Wargroove 2 is a turn-based tactical strategy game with three interweaving campaigns following different perspectives on the new conflict, tied together into one story about the cost of digging up things that were meant to stay underground.
