Sword Brother Adelard Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I know our last challenge was a bit lacklustre, but are we doing Knightfall this year? I just realised we'd already started by this time last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawklynn Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Depending on what it is this year. I need to make up for my failed ETL vow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Hm, maybe. Maybe. The purpose of Knightfall 1 was very different to year 2, since there was no ETL last year. I'd have done it before this year's ETL but we had that little event against our red cousins (with another frankly unimpressive participation). Â I'll mull it over and see what I come up with.

Sword Brother Adelard Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 I don't think we can judge our Zeal by, well, Blood and Zeal... For one thing it really focussed on a large volume of building and was very rigid on timescales and what you could build and when. Knightfall last year was a bit more fluid, you pledge what you want, finish it, then pledge again if you fancy, there was no major competition against others, I found it was more of a self-motivating activity in a fraternal environment, which I think people liked.

Take a look at ETL, the Blood Angels are probably the strongest faction on B&C at the moment. I know we all love a good challenge, no matter the odds, but being realistic no one is going to be super motivated for an event where you know you cant win. However, I still really enjoyed Blood and Zeal and I don't want anyone to think I am moaning or bitching about it. Just some honest feedback.  I did prefer Knightfall simply because it was much simpler. Pledge something, complete it and then if you want vow again.

Dark_Jober Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Hi Brothers! Â I never participated in Knightfall before, could anyone bring some light to this ignorant neophyte?If it is a painting event it will be fantastic, my main concern is that in this forum most painting events have rules about starting in sprues or not undercoated, and the first I usually do is assamble and paint to basic scheme, so I suppose I will paint Primaris or some Scouts!

Sword Brother Adelard Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 The best I can do is point you towards last year's event: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/338294-knightfall-2017/?hl=%20knightfall  Witness the zeal!

Praise be!  Thanks Brother Adelard.  That seems really difficult... Painting ONE transpor and and up to one unit to be transported.... Amazing... In that case I will have problems for joining, but I will wait until the event starts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawklynn Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 The rules were different last year because there was no ETL going on. It might change to something else this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 I think the unit to go in the transport was technically optional, but everyone just did one anyway. We could do anything really, maybe dreads? I have two on the production line awaiting painting, i didn't see KF1, what was that about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 As Zon's post suggests, this year I will be passing the torch of Knightfall overseer to him. I suggested some general guidelines for this year's rules, but it's all on him now to arrange the final product (including what models will be eligible for entry).   And for you more lax and fickle brothers, know that I am also lending him an old, but still very much functional Paddleum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWORD BROTHER RYAN Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I bit off quite a bit for myself in last years Knightfall, so this time, I'll probably stick with something simpler. Looks like it's back in the challenge game for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
