Range attack affects adjacent hexes. The Power Lich has better durability in combat.OffBck

The power lich is the fifth tier upgraded unit of the Necromancer faction in Heroes of Might and Magic II.

They have a greater number of shots than the lich, as well as superior speed, hit points, and defense. Power liches, like liches, attack the target hex and every adjacent hex, so planning should be put into how a power lich attacks in order to avoid friendly fire, which is very unfortunate as the necromancers castle features 2 tiers of units that can fly so very often the power lich doesn't have much enemies to fire at with out harming his own. In some cases, you can avoid wiping out half of your friendly units by shooting at enemy units that take up 2 hexes, the enemy is in range but your units aren't. Frankly the power liches cost too much for a unit that is most effective at damaging your own troops rather than your enemies but with a little planning their potential can be brought out.
