Default The Expansion Pack Legacy Challenge
*DISCLAIMER* This is my first challenge and there is already an existing challenge like this, but this challenge is a little different than the already existing one. You can find the other challenge here
This challenge is mainly about really enjoying every expansion pack there is. So you start of by just using the base game, and for every generation, there is a mini challenge you have to complete to move on to the next expansion pack.

Steps:

1. Create the founder. Young adult is recommended, but if you want an extra challenge you can choose adult. The sim's personality and appearance are totally up to you, but some of the mini challenges will be easier to complete with certain traits.
2. Move the founder into a house. The house is also totally up to you.

Generations:

1. Base game:
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Joining and maxing a career of your choice.
-Getting married.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.
When this is completed, you can add world adventures.

2. World Adventures:
When the next heir of you choice grows up into a young adult, you can move them out or let them stay with their family, but I recommend moving out.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Getting a max visa level of all the travel destinations.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.

3. Ambitions:
-Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Maxing a proffesion of your choice.
-Mastering either the sculpting, inventing or tattoing skill.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.

4. Late night:
Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Maxing either the film, music or sports career.
-Mastering either the piano, bass, drums or mixology skill.
-Adding a vampire to the household or turning a sim.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.
*NOTE* You have to have atleast one human sim.

5. Generations:
Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Maxing the daycare proffesion.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.
-Making the child's imaginary friend a real sim.

6. Pets:
Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Adopting a dog, cat and horse.
-Having either a lizard, turtle, snake or bird.
-Having a unicorn.
-Mastering the riding skill.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.

7. Showtime:
Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Maxing either the acrobat, magician, DJ or singer proffesion.
-Adding a genie to the household.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.

8. Supernatural:
Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Having a werewolf, vampire, witch and fairy in your household.
-Mastering the alchemy skill.
-Maxing either the fortune teller or the alchemist (self-employed career) career.
-And having or adopting a minimum of one child.
*NOTE* Same rule from the late night generation applies, you have to have atleast one human sim in your household.

9. Seasons:
Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Mastering either the snowboarding or the soccer skill.
-Having an alien in your household.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.

10. University Life:
Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Finishing a degree of your choice.
-Becoming a level ten of either the jock, rebel or nerd social group.
-Maxing either the video game developer, art appraiser or sports agent career.
-Having a plantsim in your household.
-Mastering either the street art, science, social networking or photography skill.
-Making a five star blog.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.
*NOTE* the video game developer, art appraiser and sports agent careers are results of becoming a legend in the sim's social group. And I know it's much, but you can remove some aspects of it if you want.

11. Island Paradise:
Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Maxing the lifeguard career.
-Having a mermaid in your household.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.
*NOTE* If you live in the island paradise world, Isla Paradiso, you can try to explore all the hidden islands.

12. Into The Future:
Same rules for the next heir.
This mini challenge is completed by:
-Unlocking the dystopian and utopian future.
-Having a plumbot in your household.
-Mastering either the advanced technology, bot building or laser rhythm-a-con skill.
-Maxing either the astronomer, bot arena or bot builder(skill career) career.
-Having or adopting a minimum of one child.

Rules:

1. You cannot use cheats except moveobjects.
2. Mods are allowed, but no mod that gives you an advantage that players without that mod wouldn't normally have, are allowed.

Other:

If you want an extra challenge, you can go for completing one of the lifetime wishes for the expansion pack.
If you want to play with stuff packs, you can add them to the generations, I don't have any stuff pack, and therefore I have decided not to add them.
If the sim you're playing with for a generation, dies before you finish the corresponding mini challenge, you've failed the challenge.
If you don't have one of the expansion packs you can either skip that generation, use two generations for one of the expansion packs you have, or replace it with a stuff pack if you have.

Score:

+100 points for completing a generation
+50 points for every child born
+50 points for every section of the mini challenge completed
+10 points for every promotion and skill level
+10 000 points for completing the challenge

-10 points for every sim who have died of any other cause than old age
-10 points for every section of the mini challenge failed
-100 points for failing a mini challenge
-10 000 points for failing the challenge

In my original version of the challenge, you would just skip the expansions you don't have. I assume it's the same for this version, but I'm not completely sure.

That's so nice to hear! Yeah, when I got the idea of making this challenge, it was partly because I wanted to back to the base game! I'll definitely check out your tumblr, it means a lot to me!
