I believe you Tim: nobody can beat a well-played lich. But then again,
nobody should beat a well-played 18th level mu. So, who wins when your
18th level mu runs into a lich?

Answer: He who draws first. This is the basic problem with frps that
include magic as it is usually represented in song and lore: It's
{\B *POWERFULL*.} I have never seen a game system where mus
can't get so powerful that hitting first wins. For this reason, I
wimp magic down as much as possible (fireball? What's that?) in my
game systems.
