Legacy Challenge question

Hi Simmers,

I have a question about Pinstar's Sims 4 Legacy Challenge found here:

http://www.simslegacychallenge.com/sims-4-legacy-challenge-gameplay-rules/


My question is:
If this Challenge is supposed to go on for 10 generations, how do you grow the family when only 8 Sims are allowed on the lot and according to this rule:

"The Legacy Family must remain on the same lot for the duration of the challenge. They are free (and encouraged) to develop their house but they may not move into a new house. Rooms may be imported into the house from the exchange as long as the family pays full price for the construction and items contained within."


Do you eventually get more room when family members die off?

How are you guys doing this challenge?

Any tips/advice?


Big hugs and thank you for your help,

-Rory

    Well first tip is don't let the sims breed like rabbits. ;)
    Only the heir, heirs mate, and simlets have to stay on the lot. :)
    Feel free to bump off spares and elders. >:)
    Over in stories and legacy's there is a mega thread that should have lots of handy tips and tricks in it.

    I don't do the legacy challenge very often preferring the apocalypse challenge <3 , also created by Pinstar, myself.

    Most importantly have fun. B)

    If you need extra space, just move out the spare children and/or the elders.

    And don't let your sim have too many kids. You only need an heir. My limit is three children.

    I absolutely love your advice, Mmdrgntobldrgn! Thank you so much for the link as well to the mega thread. Grabbing a cup of coffee and will dig in right now. I want to do the apocalypse challenge as well. Did you do the Wonder Child Challenge first?

    Awesome advice, SweetieKaye!! I love the tip of a 3 children limit. That sounds perfect.

    I don't bother with challenges in 4, because the game doesn't hold my attention and I get bored after short play times.

    I play out challenges & legacy's in s3 and s2.

    I love doing challenges in TS3. No load screens and there are a ton to choose from. Do you have a favorite challenge?
