The Covenant's largest airborne deployment platform, the Lich boasts heavy armament and is capable of mass deployments of up to forty soldiers. Because of this, [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] encounters with Liches have almost always resulted in total destruction of the UNSC ground forces, resulting in a lack of available information on the craft.{{Ref/Reuse|Guide}} Like smaller Covenant dropships, the Lich is spaceworthy. It is also capable of traveling through [[Slipstream space|slipspace]], though presumably it cannot do so under its own power. Its shielding, at the very least, is strong enough to endure the radiation of slipspace while following in ''[[Mantle's Approach]]'s'' wake.{{Ref/Level|Id=Shutdown|H4|Shutdown}}{{Ref/Level|Id=Midnight|H4|Midnight}} | The Covenant's largest airborne deployment platform, the Lich boasts heavy armament and is capable of mass deployments of up to forty soldiers.
