Galactic adventures - Scifi Challenge 

Hi all...so I was bored and wanted to try something different. I love scifi and alien themes so I came up with this neighborhood challenge. Main focus is on creating a fun new world/planet (whatever u wanna call it) by making both alien and human families live there with tasks. Each family has their own task they must do and there are phases in this challenge. First I will start with the phase one where you create 2 families and build your first community lot. In this challenge we do not play with making many generations, it´s ment for creating sims, new families and community lots. We will proceed for 2nd generations but the main focus is on making a fun scifi land to play with. You will also switch between households in this challenge and play multiple families. It´s up to you then how many generations you want to play later on etc.  CC and mods are allowed...I am doing this without mods and CC, playing vanilla atm. 

Phase 1 rules in a nutshell: You are an alien species and you land unknown empty world in a small space capsule. You are the last surviving couple of your species and you have important task to do for you and your species to survive. Choose your world, create 2 families and 1 community lot, complete the “to do list “. Completing each phase will unlock new abilities for the sims to use.

Unlocking skills objects and abilities: you are not allowed to use any other skills that are not mentioned on the household rules. You will need to unlock all this by doing tasks and becoming friends with sims who has that skill and power. For example, if a certain alien family knows gardening you must make best friends with one of them before you can use that skill. Each family and species have their own powers and skills they master. Example of the power system: 1st family: Gardening 2nd family: Wood Carving 3rd family: painting etc. 

Rules for the 1st family The Gardeners: 

No money cheats, no marriages to other species at this point, no leaving the world, no grilling or using fire. 

- Choose a world u wanna live in. Bullzone all lots and remove premade families.

- Choose one alien species to start with. Use your imagination and creativity to make your own species or use your favorite characters from movies etc. You can also use my species if u wish. 

- Choose a lot you want to start with. First sims are going to be gardeners and collectors so use bigger lots for having enough room. Then click on create a sim for this lot (it will take u directly to CAS). 

- Create 1 alien couple. The species can be your choice but you must stick with a specific color theme. Use 3 colors when you make your first alien couple (genetics, clothing, make ups etc.). Remember that collectors and gardeners are humble on their looks and do not want too much attention. 

- Then build a small base for them on the lot you chose. The base should have a small building or area for sleeping and washing yourself. The base should have these objects: Double bed, shower, toilet, sink, sofa, trashcan and 1-4 planting pots for gardening,  trees, flowers and bushes for decorating the lot. After you have made it use money cheat to decrease family funds to only 250 simeleons. 

- Now use some of the money for buying seeds or look for the seeds. Start gardening and collecting things. You are not allowed to have stove. Your founding couple will have to survive with only what they can find from the world or grow themselves. Fishing is also allowed for them so u can use that too. Mostly they will be vegetarian at this point. Eating the fruits and veggies they grow. 

- To make money sell products from gardening, collectibles and fishes. No other jobs are allowed. 

- This household also has a task for making children so after they have stored some food they can get pregnant. 

There are some tasks that each household must achieve, for the 1st household here is the to do list:

- Start a garden on your home lot. 

- Reach lvl 10 in gardening. 

- Have minimun of 1 baby alien.

- Expand your house for the kids by mimimum of 1 nursery with baby and toddler equipment, 1 fridge, 1 dinner table and chair for toddlers. If you have money you can decorate and upgrade the house as much as you can at this point. 

After doing these tasks you can move to creating the 2nd family and the first community lot (will be another post later). You do not need to master the gardening skill at this point if you wan´t to move on to the next family, but you must come back later to master the skill if you do so.

Here is a founding couple I am starting with. They are Green aliens with the following color theme: Green, yellow and white. Eco friendly, traditional sims alien species, looks with bald heads, big black eyes and green skintone. 

In this challenge you will create 6 new families, community lots to play with and complete tasks, have fun guys!

Already completed the 1st family tasks? Go here for the 2nd family rules:

Have fun and tag your first post with this  #ts4galaxychallenge or #ts4galaxy if you doing it, thanks! 

Alternate rules and variations:

option A: You can also do this challenge with vampires, berrysims, banillasims or anything your tastes. Just change the theme from aliens to your liking. The point is that you will arrive on empty world and start from there. 

option B: You are allowed to switch between families between doing the family tasks, but to move on to the next phase all family tasks must be completed. 

The Hard Mode: You can make this challenge more difficult by adding the “sims can only shop from community” rule. This means that if you wish to buy something new for the household, for example new table or chair you need to find a furniture shop to do that or use market tables from CL. This adds a bit realism to the challenge. And obviously, you can only do this after you have completed the artists (if they opened a shop) and mad scientist tasks which allows travelling to the shopping area.

The Asters - Landing capsule and gardens. 

I actually spent most of the money on building the capsule, gardens and decoration. I was left with 257 simeleons. Then the Asters bought some seeds and got pretty lucky with various vegetables and fruits to start with.

“ You are right as usual. The day seems quite long on this planet but we don´t know what the nights will bring us “

“ Okay then, are you ready...let´s walk around little “.
