A Lepacy of Townies.

This is a Lepacy style game aimed at including as many townies as possible over the course of generations, informally calling it a Towniepacy for short. This was first posted on @talesofsimverse and after a long recap/retelling, I'm now posting current gameplay of Generation 3.

My Towniepacy basic rules:

Start with base game and add packs as the game progresses.

A new generation starts when the oldest child becomes a YA

Each generation opens at least one new town and most partners from that generation must be original townies from that town(s).

All YAs must live or stay, temporarily, on the new town(s) while looking for partners and exploring

The Heir will be the the first YA of each generation to find a life-partner from a new town

The main family home is located in Newcrest and the heir must move there to start a family after formalizing with a partner

The rest of Newcrest should be populated by spare families as possible (leaving one hood to expand with community lots based on their needs)

Packs without residential towns will be gradually added between generations.

Complete as many careers, aspirations, collections, etc as possible

As soon as Pixy was old enough to leave the alien crib and outfit, Morgan got rid of the apparatus and wrapped the infant on a cozy onesie. Feeling, for the first time, like she had some control over her own child.

"Doesn't it feel better, baby Pixy? Yes, it does? yes, it does. We will have a cozy bed for you too"

[townieverse]

Allan is the first relative outside the household allowed to visit the baby

Allan: Aww, dad, look how cute, can we keep them? Andrew: The baby is not a pet, Allan Allan: But you said Pixy's my sibling. Siblings live together Andrew: River and Meadow are also Pixy's siblings, son Allan: But the twins are my cousins! Andrew: We already talked about this, Allan Allan: But-- Andrew: The baby stays here, with her parents. Rich: But they can have a sleepover, right? Andy? please we are exhausted Allan: YES! Can we? pleeease? Andrew: Maybe when Pixy is a bit older, ok? We have to go now, it's getting late.

[townieverse]

The twins weren't too happy with a baby at first, but quickly calmed down after being comforted by their parents. For them, there was nothing different with a baby who looked like their cousin Allan, and the shiny crib was a plus. As long as it didn't cry...

[townieverse]

It wasn't easier after the baby was born, though

Pixy was quiet, didn't cry much, but struggled bonding with Morgan. The newborn also required a very particular kind of crib, special formula, and a protective outfit during the first stage of life, all of which was provided by mysterious alien means, along with a note assuring Morgan she could safely send the baby to their pollination parent using the crib.

However, the birth brought out an even more confusing aspect about the little alien. Pixy is Allan's sibling.

That changed everything. She couldn't just send the baby back, even if she wanted to. She didn't. But knowing her own daughter was the half sister of her brother-in-law's son added an extra level of complexity she wasn't prepared for either.

NOTE: So yeah, the two alien kids are related. I don't know if the game always uses the same PT or not, so I wasn't sure what to expect.

[townieverse]

Pregnancy was hard, but went by fast.

NOTE: I feel bad for Morgan, ngl. Normally I embrace the twist and turn of the game, but this is totally my fault, not something that could happen in normal gameplay. I considered going back to a previous save even if it meant loosing gameplay, including other households, but there is an important aspect of this baby that will come into play later

[townieverse]

Rich: Thanks for coming, Mom. I didn't want Morgan to be alone today. She doesn't say it, but I think she's scared.

Belle: I understand, honey. Andrew was prepared when he was abducted, and so were we, but for Morgan must be terrifying. Let her know we all support her, and I'll be back tomorrow.

[townieverse]

Almost as she could heard her daughter-in-law's silent pleads, SuperSim Belle showed up to help.

Belle: Don't you worry, dear, I can be here every day if you need me... this place is a mess

Morgan: Don't you have three boys at home to care f--?

Belle: Oh, Mila is there. Isn't it adorable, though? Three boys and three girls.

Morgan: I'm not even showing yet, Why do you think--?

Belle: I have a hunch.

[townieverse]

Everything was so fast Morgan was already feeling the effects of her situation before even deciding her feelings about it.

With an astronaut ancestor, a rocket ship in the yard, an a cyan-skinned child in the family tree, the presence of alien life was an everyday part of Rich and his family, so they were all excited about a second half-alien baby in the bunch, but even Andrew, the one with most experience with aliens, couldn't understand why Morgan had been taken when female sims rarely are.

Whatever the reason, though, Morgan was the one left to carry the weight... literally.

[townieverse]

Andrew and Morgan had a long and candid conversation abut what she should expect during her outworldy pregnancy. As in-laws who were never close friends before, it was an awkward moment but strangely bonding.

Andrew: Call me if you need anything, sis, I'm right across the street.

[townieverse]

Rich: Hey man, thanks for coming so early!

Andrew: No problem, what is so urgent?

Rich: Well, Morgan got abducted and I think she's alien pregnant and then the faucet broke

Andrew: Wait--? What?

Rich: The faucet broke, man! Can you fix it?

Andrew: Of course, but what about Morgan?

Rich: She is not feeling so well, how long were you sick for?

Andrew: With Allan? All the time

[townieverse]

Morgan came back with quite a story to tell, but also something unexpected

Morgan: Oh shit, what the heck is happening, Rich?! Rich: Oh no! I'm calling Andrew-- Morgan: To ask him what this means?! Rich: To ask him to fix the faucet, I'm pretty sure the glowing belly means you're pregnant Morgan: WHAT! I may be pregnant with an alien and you worry about the faucet? Rich: Well, you know how Andy is, he would be pissed if we call a plumber instead. But, yeah, I'm sure he will be interested to know about the alien baby too

NOTE: Soooooo .. yeah, double fuck up!!

Not only she was abducted because I messed up with the settings, she's pregnant! 🤦‍♀️ I almost stopped the pregnancy and ignored the event, but decided to leave the chaos on

[townieverse]

By the time Morgan was back, the sun was already up, as was Rich who had been waiting for her.

[townieverse]

Rich was left to care for the confused babies by himself.

[townieverse]

She fell a call she couldn't stop, no matter how much she fought against it.

NOTE: So, this was my fault. I used mccc to allow female abduction once for an old save, but forgot to changed right back. Since then I seen other female sims abducted in different saves, but never cared enough to change the setting. Until now, so I finally did, but it was too late for Morgan

[townieverse]

Eveything was going perfect one night, right before putting the girls to bed, when Morgan suddenly left in the middle of potty time...
