Hello, everyone!
I have been lurking and it's nice to see everyone's game progress. I have started a new game using the new rules to try them out with my spin on it. I will still be playing the Fleur family but will be also playing a new game: The Pebblestones. I've having fun so far with it!
Kangaroo - I love your spin on this challenge! I'm excited to see it play out. I am also doing a "trading post" before the buy mode is opened up to buy any more furniture than what I started out with. Mine is actually going to be a consignment shop though and they can't build it until they master handiness (to build) and logic (to understand ocean currents to plan an adequate trading post). I'm no where near that though! They are only at level 5 each.
I also won't get electricity until we master inventing! I have kerosene lamps every where ;)
