I found out you can have some fun with Liches in the new version - enjoy this video (DIVX, packed in 7z archive):

Here you also have a picture of what you are going to download:

The perfect fit of the music was not intentional btw and is an amazing coincidence...

Yep - just claim control of the Liche and deploy your rocket whereever you want...

Naturally not. Also worth noting is that liches have reduced damage vs air.
IE this is useless.

Well not completely. As you can see in the video you can deploy them in a way that they will circle around close to the ground - enough to reach some passing units' hitspheres. The problem is that it probably also will hit you...

Hmm, then I will try to use this. It would be hilarious, especially if the other people had never seen this before and were confused.

Try CA anti-gravity laser liches, they are much more fun.

I had the same happen in both OTA with my Pop-up missile turrets and recently in Spring with a sparrow missile fired by a F-15.
pretty entertaining though, funny vid.

happened to me all the time in OTA when anything with starburst missiles tried to shoot airplanes.
