Liches and power liches are level 5 creatures of Necropolis town. They are recruited from the Mausoleum. Both liches attack at range with a death cloud attack, which always causes damage in the target hex but also causes damage to all non-undead creatures in adjacent hexes. At hand-to-hand combat they defend themselves with blows from their scepters suffering from melee penalty and making their attack less efficient.

Death cloud special ability

The death cloud ability works while liches attack at range. Their attack cause a "puff of death", that affects all the adjacent hexes around the target hex dealing damage to creatures within the radius. However, all non-living creatures (elementals, golems and undead) and war machines are immune to the splash effects of death cloud. Melee attack of liched does not cause death cloud to emerge. Death cloud can also harm own troops, if liches are combined with living creatures and they are standing within radius of liches death cloud. Liches also defend Necropolis towns in towers, but their attack do not cause death cloud effects.
