These Borealis genetics are fantastic! Every heir, thus far, has had a unique, beautiful blend of their parents' features. It's really cool how this challenge makes it easier to keep mixing original townie genetics into the family bloodline. Keep up the great work!
Thanks! I work really hard on these genetics, I think I could zip through this challenge a lot faster than I do if I didn't put so much effort into getting interesting genetics in my family line
I must say that I enjoy the rules where you are free to use both elixirs and moving people in/out of the household. It leaves me free to befriend, invite, match make and try for baby before moving the sims out. I don't tend to use elixirs with my heir and in family born sims because I think it's a bit easy, but with my genetic experiment on the side I enjoy the game immensely. I haven't had anyone use alchemy yet, my plan is for my next moving heir to do that, so I can have an unlimited supply of useful elixirs in the next town. I also love the longer lifespans of supernatural sims such as vampires and faeries because it makes it a lot easier to keep them around longer. A great way to make sure the sims are pregnant before moving them out is to have a styling station on the home lot, pregnant sims can't be given makeovers so it works as a pregnancy test even for sims who aren't in the family.
Another thing I have been enjoying with this dynasty is creating my family echo family-tree. Lucky Palms was a bit of a learning curve, but I think that Aurora Skies is where I have honed my technique. I got the idea from Ausette when she did her own "story progression" in her Random Town Jump and I think the results so far are great.
