News and Announcements: 

***August/September Monthly Challenge - Reinforcements!

 

The August/September challenge is a simple one: Play a game using the new Reinforcements Extra.

 

There’s been a fair bit of commotion online about this latest update, with lots of knee jerk reactions from folk who probably haven’t played a game using this extra yet.

 

So now is your chance to test out this new update and let us know if this Extra is a worthy addition to Infinity.

 

Because the change is significant, we are giving you to the END OF SEPTEMBER, to send us your reports and analysis of playing games with Reinforcements.

 

As always, send in your reports and analysis to us at lossoflieutenant@gmail.com

 

A random winner will be chosen at the end of the month to win a blister of their choice from Toy Soldier Imports.

 

***Q3 Hobby Challenge - Narrative Story***

 

Continuing LoL’s drive to get people into the creative side of Infinity, for quarter three we are asking our listeners to write us a short narrative story.

 

The infinity universe has a rich and diverse background, with so many source books to choose from, and with Endsong recently released, it’s a perfect time to create some new stories from the Human Sphere! 

 

Is there a unit or character in your army who has performed so heroically over the course of multiple games they deserve to have a story written about them?

Or is there a piece of background you’ve read or heard about that's just crying out to be expanded? 

 

Well now’s your chance to express yourself through the written word. 

 

Please try to stick to a limit of no more than 2000 words, as these are supposed to be short stories.

 

Alternatively, a 10 minute audio recording would also be welcome.

 

Send your submission to lossoflieutenant@gmail.com

 

At the end of the quarter we will pick our favorites and give them the White Noise treatment of reading them out on the show!

 

A random entry will win a small box set of their choice from Toy Soldier Imports!

 

Good luck!

Operation: Soldato Di Fortuna (HOST)

Hello Everyone!

With Burn City Brawl done and dusted it's time to properly shake off covid and get back to running monthly events !

As such, it's a pleasure to announce Operation: 'Soldato Di Fortuna'

Tournament is 400 Points and 8 SWC with Limited Insertion and Soldiers of Fortune.

Due to popular demand and public outcry we have decided to do a MERCENARY AUCTION to raise some money for charity and keep Yojimbo out of every... single... list. To bid, go to the event page in Infinity Melbourne, find the picture of the merc you’d like, and put your bid in the comments. All money from the auction will go towards a charity that will be voted on by the Infinity Melbourne community. As a special fun little minigame as the purpose of this is to raise money for charity, anyone who donates blood/plasma will get a $10.00 credit to their bids.

Hopefully this is a nice refreshing event after practicing and participating in a very competitive tournament.

The Missions are:

- Biotechvore

- Containment Field, which can be found in the LoL Mission Pack.

- Firefight

Tickets: $20

Date: 16 September

Location: House of War Ringwood
