Just for confirmation : in melee, I dont need to have more power on my faction card than ANY opponent right ? Just one opponent is enough ?

Yup.

to amush the charachter do i need to have more power on my house card than my opponent house card or than my opponent total?

The value in question is "power on the faction card", you need to have more than your opponent.

Tbf, the wording is terrible. "While you have more power on your faction card than an opponent..." implies that there's ways for your opponents to put power on your faction card.

"While there is more power on your faction card than on an opponents..." is a much better sentence!

It could be fixed by making the ellipsis explicit: "While you have more power on your faction card than an [or any?] opponent has on his...".

But then again, I´m not sure about "his", "his or hers", or "theirs" - but the natives can figure this out for sure ;)

Agreed. To native speakers its obvious that it refers to faction cards of different players, but given how precise the wording is in other areas (marshal/play vs. enters play, gain vs. move, etc.) it is an ambiguous phrase that was better avoided (the same applies to Disputed Claim)
