Except that the Lich's Spell Trigger (which contains Stoneskin & Mirror Image) will fire the instant he sees an enemy, making a second Backstab worthless. And you'd have to wait for
12 hours for that Stoneskin to wear off.
1) Make the Lich waste all his spells by entering & leaving the room, thus depriving him of a target. He might still summon his Pit Fiend, though, and he also might follow you upstairs--or he AND the Pit Fiend might follow.
2) Give everybody good melee weapons, use Chant & Haste, and rush him.
With both tactics, starting things off with a Backstab helps, of course.
