Thanks for the rules! i have always wanted to do a Legacy! I have a couple questions so when the founder gets married and has a child "heir" when that heir is old enough to move out and start a family of their own can i move them out? Do all ten generations have to live in the house? What if my founding family has five kids then what? Sorry i just wanted to clarify i have never done one of these and i wanted to be sure i did it right!
The way I understand it:
The actual Legacy bloodline has to remain in the original house, always. Or at least on the original lot - once you get enough money built up you could un-build the original, crappier house and start building a nicer one on the same lot, for instance.
The "spares" (the members of each generation that don't become the one actual heir) however can be moved out of the house at will. You just a) can't actually switch to them as the active family at any time, and b) can't move any of them back into the Legacy House once they're gone.
So if you have a large founding family like me (The founder, her mate, the founder's step-son the mate brought in with him, and five Legacy kids), the idea would be to raise them up, pick an heir along the way, keep the heir in the house, and move the spare kids out as soon as they reach young-adulthood (or very soon after, if you want to keep one or two around to earn a few Legacy points first).
The thing I'm still confused about is whether or not you can move the founder/heirs out once their generation is past - like once the founder has raised all the kids and an heir has been chosen and has started the next generation, can you move the founder out of the house?
