In D&D lich is a spellcaster who has sacrificed his soul in order to live forever as an undead. They get all sorts of bonuses to their stats, as well as all the normal immunities that undead get (immune to sleep, poison, paralysis, anything requiring a fortitude save unless it affects objects, critical hits, sneak attacks, etc).
In addition, even if you destroy its body, it reforms in 1 to 10 days unless you destroy the object that contains the lich's soul, which could be damn near anything, anywhere. A smart lich hides its phylactery well, as it is his only real weakness.

He's also an excellent choice as a first hero if you're concerned about harrassment.

Speaking in WarCraft III terms there Twilight, I always pick the Dreadlord (I love Vampiric Aura and Inferno) first... I have never won a match though, so lol  |

How about Dungeon Siege, have you tried it? And while Con is at the peak of his nerdiness for now, where did Tolkien come up with a "Balrog"? Some things can be found in a dictionary but not Balrogs. In the Fellowship of the Ring movie it was a huge devil, but were they in any mythology or did JRR have a few bottles of Jack and think up the name and idea? Also Dev/Null, have you seen any schoolkids bound for OZ lately? |

I used TibEd to make a new rules Ini file for RA2. If you saw it you'd never look at the game the same way again. I added some really potent new vehicles, infantrymen, and weapons. One of my favorite ones is the Soviet Batteryboat. Basicly a converted cruise ship with 12 120mm tank cannons in the sides and a flak gun on the top deck. The stupid AI won't build them or attack them because they're clones of the cruise ship. Sadly there's no new artwork yet and many bugs still.
Nobody new what a Balrog was did they?
