January Monthly Challenge - What’s Cooler Than Being Cool?
Simple one for January for everyone. We want you to play the newest ITS mission, Cryogenics and let us know what you think of it. This is also the final mission of Cancon, so those going along, if your brain isn’t too fried by round five, we’d love to read your battle reports and what your thoughts are on the mission
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!
Good Luck!
Q1 2023 Hobby Challenge - Newly Classified
Are you a little bored of the current classifieds deck? Tired of pulling Nano Espionage and just opting for Secure HVT instead? Well, this is your chance to put your creative hat on, as for the first quarter of 2023, we want you to design us some new classifieds!
Send us your ideas for new Classified cards, how they will work and your reasons for choosing them to us at lossoflieutenant@gmail.com you can send in one, or a whole deck if you like, additional brownie points awarded to those who design the cards and artwork themselves.
At the end of the quarter, we will select our favourites to build a new classified deck for people to try out and play in their games!
A random entry will win a small box set of their choice from Toy Soldier Imports!
Good luck!

Hey folks!
Welcome to Spotlight! A new semi regular short form show from Loss of Lieutenant where one of the hosts chooses a single topic, this could be a rule, interaction, skill, or particular unit, and explains how it works and why they want to talk about it.
We figured this would be a good way of covering smaller topics, more near and dear to the hosts' hearts, that otherwise would not fit into a normal episode.
On our first episode, Val is going to talk about the viability of four man links, or FourCores!
Thanks for listening!
