“As Sims were spreading to all corners of the World, they found themselves more and more attached to these new lands, and began creating permanent settlements. There was opportunity and excitement to be had, for those who desired it.”
When entering this Era, go into build mode and rebuild your house in a Colonial or Old West style, making sure that it adheres to the rules of this Era. You may also, if you want to, replace other lots and households in your neighbourhood with ones in a Colonial or Old West style. You may either create them as you go, or place them from the Gallery.
If you decide to create new lots and/or households, consider sharing them on the Gallery using the #HistoryChallenge tag, so that others may add them to their game.
RESTRICTIONS
- Aspirations
“Wherever there were new discoveries to be made, there was someone to chronicle them, through writing or song. However, there was also always someone who just wanted to put spokes in other Sims' wheels.”
Sims may now also have the Bestselling Author, Chief of Mischief, Musical Genius and Successful Lineage aspirations. - Careers
“Some Sims of the Old West recognized the potential for profit if they could get themselves in control of things, while others took a more altruistic approach to bettering the community.”
Male Sims may now also join the Business(Management branch), Writer(Author branch), Athlete(Bodybuilder branch) and Doctor careers. Female Sims may now also join the Writer(Author branch) and Painter(Patron of the Arts branch) careers. Sims may also now sell clothes, and may hire 1 employee for their personal store. Sims may now also publish up to 2 books per week. - Romance
“Relationships between Sims in the Old West were as wild and changing as the Old West itself, and it was not all that uncommon to see two Sims be nigh inseparable one day, and complete strangers the next day.”
Sims may now get divorced. Female Sims may now get remarried to Sims other than a brother of the husband. Sims may now choose the "safe" WooHoo options. - Objects/Furniture
“Various new inventions were available to Old West Sims, that would either increase their efficiency or allow them to relax and unwind after a stressful day.”
Sims may now also buy and use bars, coffee machines, gaming tables, gramophones, guitars, typewriters, cameras, photo studios, massage tables and closets.
If you didn't download the typerwiter mod, your Sims may use a computer instead. Neither the typewriter nor the computer may be used for anything other than writing and career-related things. - Other Rules
“The demand for efficiency and progress in the Old West meant that Sims did not get much opportunity to just relax and sit down and talk, until they came up with the idea of dedicating a building to just that.”
