In ''[[Halo Wars 2: Awakening the Nightmare]]'', the '''Lich Vanguard''' is a useable unit for players playing as [[Pavium]]. The Lich can be unlocked as the final leader ability available to Pavium. Once deployed, the Lich will circle an area for a while, using its heavy plasma cannon to fire upon assailants for massive effect similar to the Pelican Gunship ability available for [[James Cutter|Captain Cutter]]. Additionally, at the centre of the Lich's circling area will spawn a portal allowing the player to produce infantry and vehicle units. This makes the Lich vanguard an incredibly powerful area-denial tool. | ||
