Yes. When equipped and armed with some spells he will do just fine. Maybe not the best SC that can be built to challenge other SC's, but certainly not the worst. It really comes down to game mechanics and a bit of luck. Die rolls and such. It's actually pretty complex.

I'd be more than willing to champion the notion of a lich as being a viable SC and build for Ermor. A build which also fits all your criteria for what Ermor needs in your opinion from a pretender.

I just wanted to show to you in the easiest way possible, how both your statements are false. These were:

1) Only a "noob" as you refer to them, would play Ermor with an SC as a pretender.

2) A lich is not an SC.

But, I guess your perception of what is "serious" play prohibits this.

I know better. So, I don't care for that particular example you give. I don't believe I've been whiny about the issue. Depends if you think that stating an opinion is whining. Some people do that. Also, that would mean you've been quite vocal.

Frankly, all I did in my last post was prove how you made two invalid statements. And I agreed to argue the case for an SC as being a valid choice of pretender for Ermor - indirecly.

Good luck to you too.
