This has been a long time coming.  Finally got around to not only playing (and the various games I've started and then abandoned is ridiculous XD) but now have started a story to go along with it!

Presenting The Start of Something: a Family Reign Challenge

Chapter 1: The First Week

Reserved- just in case

What an absolute hunk!

His little house is so cute, too. And I like how he wouldn't let you tell the story.
You hint that there's a long story about Brenna.  Is there another thread we could read first for background or do you mean that their story is yet to unfold?

Can't wait to read about how that party goes!

[Shewolf13]

@oshizu  Thanks so much!  Isn't he though?  I spent quite a long time in CAS with him lol.  Actually, there's no thread for this previous story.  It was actually another test file for this challenge I did.  Brenna is actually one of the Sims I saved to my library from the Baby Boomer Challenge last year.  I put her in the last test file and they met and fell hard.  I ended up having to do a bit of a reset on my saved files so this is a brand new file. Even though I tend to seed my town with a bunch of my own Sims, I have a rule: unless my Sims meet others out in public naturally (in other words, they aren't allowed to just go right to the Sim's house and meet them), then they aren't eligible spouses, friends, etc.  So when I saw Brenna fishing right across the street, I was giddy lol  Working on next post now.  Going to try desperately to keep game play and story fairly close.

Thank you for explaining what that "Haven't I met you before?" comment meant. I was feeling left out, like I'd missed out on an earlier multi-generational story or something. 

Ooh, I like your strategy of populating the world with your own (more appealing) sims, with the proviso that they need to run into each other autonomously.

Also, it's great that you are playing your challenge.
I've read through your rule set several times already (hehe), but the rules will seem less complicated (the concept of Fame points is new to me) if I can follow your gameplay.

Looking forward to what's to come.

@oshizu I'm a bit rusty for writing.  I'm almost done, but it's 4 am here XD I'll have the next chapter up tomorrow once I get up.  Sorry for the wait!   I'll be adding stuff to the blog to show requirements and all that as I go.  Also, checking out the spreadsheets I have available might help too, if you haven't seen them yet ^^

[JudesSims]

I'm loving this! Very entertaining

Chapter 2: The First Week- continued is up!

[oshizu]

Great chapter!　I looked at Blake's traits on your blog and saw that he has the Jealous trait.
Did you roll for his traits?

[Shewolf13]

@oshizu

Nope, I purposely picked that one.  Was kinda curious to see how it worked.  When it first got put into the game, I was on a bit of a hiatus as real life went a little nuts.  Thought it might make for an interesting story.

[MarianT]

Aww -- so glad that Brenna accepted Blake's proposal!

[Shewolf13]

@MarianT

Thanks!  Got a chance to play today, but won't be able to get a post up till tomorrow after work, but should have enough for at least 2 ^^
