Acebaur Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 So we've done this event before and Jolemai and I were talking about doing another one. It would be a building event between us and BA (possibly including our brothers of Dorn) that would lead up to the next ETL. Who would be interested in an event like this?

Acebaur Posted February 12, 2020 Author Share Posted February 12, 2020 What we should to build? An army? A unit? A miniature? All of the above! It would be divided into categories based on the week Jolemai and Paladin_61RUS 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin_61RUS Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Well, I`d be interested too! Jolemai 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sword Brother Adelard Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Do we have to do the category thing again? The last Blood & Zeal was a bit too restrictive, and made it difficult to partake in, you had to build exactly the right model in exactly the right week, and i think that was one of the reasons the take up was so low. I for one got really frustrated because one of my models was discounted because I built it in the wrong week thanks to a time zone dispute. That sort of wiped out the fun.

Hymnblade Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 As someone who routinely takes over a week to finish a project, the idea of setting completion goals by week sounds stressful, haha. Jolemai 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Christopher Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I'd be willing to participate, provided that I'll have the right models/bits to do so. All in all, I'd like to participate in a community event with my non-Primaris stuff ;) This would make me feel like being more in touch with the Frater here.

Brother Carpenter Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I'm afraid I'll have to skip this one for sanity's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Chaplain Matthias+ Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 (edited) Can we add a kill team category? I think I'm going to have to stop building my full-sized 8th ed army. No time to play nor space to store it anymore. Edited February 19, 2020 by +Chaplain Matthias+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Cheers for the interest so far folks. Whilst the fine details are still being done on any future event, here is the previous iteration of Blood and Zeal. The tl;dr is as follows: Building event only, whereby models are moved from sprue/bits to being built and undercoated. Conversions are encouraged (bonus points on offer) Duration is seven weeks, each week it's a different category: HQ; Troops; Elites; Fast Attack; Heavy Support; Dedicated Transports; Flyers. So If you wanted to vow Terminators, you would need to wait until the Elites category is open and do it all in that week. Should it go ahead, the IFs will be on the same team as the BTs, your opponents are the BAs. The team which builds the most (measured in PLs) win the category. The team that wins the most categories wins the event. Basically, it's a very fast moving event with a very competitive edge. However, the goal is to get folks prepared for the ETL (major B&C painting event) in the summer - as in, Frater have things ready to go when the ETL comes around. The best part is, there's no painting (bar the undercoat) which not only levels the playing field but wont interfere/burn folk out for any other events you wish to participate in this year :) Canadian_F_H and templargdt 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 The best part is, there's no painting (bar the undercoat) So thats the Templars 99% painted then!! :D Could be interested in this, will have to see what bits I have laying around.

Jolemai Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Sorry folks, but Blood and Zeal wont be going ahead this year. I look forward to being able to run it again in the future and hope to welcome you all then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Well that sucks, on the plus side though at least it gives me a year to prepare :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Carpenter Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Well that sucks, on the plus side though at least it gives me a year to prepare :D Lol. I guess I'll have two or maybe three marines paint ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
