The easiest way to kill ANY undead in the game is with PROTECTION FROM UNDEAD scrolls. The lich or vampire can't even see you, you can just walk up and attack without it fighting back, using spells, etc. So just send one person in with magic weapons and under protection from undead, and kill them. Thats the quick, easy, cheesy way.
The actually fighting way, is to send some summoned monsters first at them, so their death spells, finger of death, etc etc are used up. Send one or 2 at a time so a group of them doesn't get caught in a area spell. Keep back while your summoned monsters soften up their spells some. Once you are out of summoned monsters, Have your mage head up and cast some protection-reducing spells such as breach, warding whip, pierce magic. To get his defenses down. Then have your guys power up and hit him full speed.
Beware, liches can summon demons and genies. I usually hang back since usually a summoned demon usually attacks the lich if you aren't close.
Now, some items that seem to really work great on liches even through shields. Daystar hurts them bad (unless they have a fire shield up), most of the time about 40 damage or so, once in a while you'll get luck and do up to 1000+ damage to it (where that comes from i don't know). Also RINGS of the RAM can batter down a lich easy also. I suggest using a mage to lower some defenses, then hit it with daystar and RINGS of the RAM, then full out attack to finish them up.
Lastly, if you want, you can try and damage the lich before it casts its protection spells. Usually you can only do this with fast weapons with 0 or 1 delay time. Daggers, etc. Have your party surrounding the lich when it starts to appear, then once it appears have everyone attack it. You might get lucky and do some damage with your fast reaction time weapons before its protection spells go up. I only did this once, so I know you can do it, but it doesn't work most of the time.
