World of Total War: WARHAMMER II
Millennia ago, under siege by an invasion of Chaos, a conclave of high elf mages forged a vast, mysterious vortex. His goal was to attract the Winds of Magic from the world as the vortex drains the ocean and to throw the demonic hordes back into the Realm of Chaos. Now the Great Vortex wavered, and the world was once again on the brink of destruction.

Powerful forces move to heal the maelstrom and prevent catastrophe. Others seek to use its terrible energies for their bitter purpose. The race continues and the fate of the world will be in the hands of the winner. Prince Tyrion, protector of Ulthuan, guides the high elves in their desperate efforts to stabilize the vortex that rages over their home continent. On his palanquin throne, slann-mage-priest Mazdamundi leads his warlike armies of lizardmen as they rush north from Lustria. He, too, intends to prevent a cataclysm, although the methods of the Ancients must prevail.

The Witch-king Malekith and his sadistic hordes of dark elves are erupted from Naggaroth and their labyrinths of the Black Ark. He feels great weakness in the maelstrom – and a great opportunity in his death. Meanwhile, the Skaven, led by Quick Headtaker, stir in their fetid underground tunnels. There they multiply freely and greedily look at the surface, hiding their motives. The time of revelation is at hand … Four races, four outcomes, one goal: control of the Great Vortex, for better or worse.
