Liches and Power Liches are the level 5 creatures of Necropolis. They are recruited from the Mausoleum, and can also be raised with Expert Necromancy if the hero has equipped the Cloak of the Undead King.
"Liches attack at range with a death cloud, which always causes damage in the target hex but also attacks all non-undead creatures in adjacent hexes. At close range, they defend themselves less efficiently with blows from their scepters." RoE manual
Special Ability: Death Cloud[edit | hide | hide all]
Liches' death cloud special ability only works when they attack at range. In addition to normal ranged attack damage in target hex, the death cloud also causes a "puff of death" that affects all 6 adjacent hexes around the target hex dealing damage to all living creatures in the radius. The damage is caused equally to allied and enemy creatures, and the amount is calculated individually for all affected creatures. Two hexes wide creatures do not suffer additional damage if both of their hexes are affected. Although Liches also defend Necropolis towns in arrow towers, their attacks follow the arrow tower calculations, and do not apply the death cloud effect.
Death Cloud is similar to Magogs' Fireball Attack. As Fireball Attack and Death Cloud are considered as AoE ranged attacks, they can't be affected by Preemptive Shots , even if target Gunslingers or Bounty Hunters as a central hex.
Creatures immune to death cloud: Elementals:
- Air and Storm Elementals
- Water and Ice Elementals
- Fire and Energy Elementals
- Earth and Magma Elementals
- Psychic and Magic Elementals
Undead:
- Skeletons and Skeleton Warriors
- Walking Dead and Zombies
- Wights and Wraiths
- Vampires and Vampire Lords
- Liches and Power Liches
- Black and Dread Knights
- Bone and Ghost Dragons
- Mummies
Gargoyles:
Golems:
Mechanicals:
Automatons and Sentinel Automatons
Dreadnoughts and Juggernauts
It should be noted, that the immunity only concerns the cloud causing damage to adjacent hexes. It does not protect creatures from liches' normal ranged attack damage.
Heroes with a specialty[edit | hide]
- Moandor the Death Knight has liches as a specialty, which increases the Attack and Defense skills of any Liches or Power Liches for each level attained after 5th level and gives them a speed bonus of 1.
Horn of the Abyss[edit | hide]
Liches and Power Liches can shoot death cloud at any hex of the battlefield except for its own hex and adjacent ones (unless Bow of the Sharpshooter is present). Targeting dialogue is called by pressing G.
