๐ The story

Packs recommended
๐ก Setup
๐ Getting started
- Create a founder and, before you play, define **the vow** โ a succession rule, a marriage rule, or a lifestyle ban that will genuinely constrain the family.
โจ๏ธ Cheats to type
testingcheats truefreerealestate onfreerealestate offmoney 0๐ General rules
- One heir continues each generation.
- No money cheats after setup.
- The vow applies to every household member, no exceptions.
โจ Specific rules
- Define one law at the start (e.g. "the family never holds a paid job," "heirs may only marry for love, never wealth," "no member may leave the home world").
- The vow must genuinely constrain play at least once per generation.
- Breaking the vow even once ends the legacy.
โ What you can do
- Choose one founding law (e.g., never leave the home world, never hold a job, always vegetarian).
- Use `bb.moveobjects`.
โ What you can't do
- No generation may ever break the founding vow.
- The vow binds all ten generations.
- No money cheats.

๐ก Strategy tips
- Choose a vow that bites but doesn't soft-lock you โ test that ten generations can actually survive under it.
- Roleplay the temptation: the strongest runs are the ones where keeping the vow clearly costs the family something.
- Track the vow in an in-game note so a late-night play session doesn't accidentally break it.

๐ฅ Want it harder?
- Add a **second vow** at Generation 5 that must coexist with the first.
- Make the vow a genuine handicap (e.g. "no career income ever") and still reach Gen 10.

Combine with the Legacy Challenge's single-lot rule and succession laws for a "vow-bound dynasty." ---
