Gameplay Notes / Reference:

• Coming of Age, marriage, moving, and kids: When a sim of your bloodline comes of age (age 14 for 1890-1950, age 16 for 1950+), you must do four things:
  • 1. Roll for whether they will get married. (Roll a ten sided die, if you get a 1, 2, or 3, they don’t get married – this will mean females will stay in the family home, while men can move out and get a home or apartment with whatever their inheritance is)
  • 2. Roll for how much money they get as an inheritance or dowry (use this table & 6 sided die.)
    • 1 = 0 simoleons
    • 2 = 5,000 simoleons
    • 3 = 10,000 simoleons
    • 4 = 15,000 simoleons
    • 5 = 20,000 simoleons
    • 6 = 25,000 simoleons
  • 3. Roll for how old they will be when they marry or move.
    • Use a 10 sided die, using the below table as a guide until 1950.
      • Roll a 1 = teen + 24 days (15 years old)
      • Roll a 2 = teen + 31 days (16 years old)
      • Roll a 3 = teen + 38 days (17 years old)
      • Roll a 4 = YA (18 years old)
      • Roll a 5 = YA + 7 days (19 years old)
      • Roll a 6 = YA + 14 days (20 years old)
      • Roll a 7 = YA + 21 days (21 years old)
      • Roll an 8 = YA + 28 days (22 years old)
      • Roll a 9 = YA + 35 days (23 years old)
      • Roll a 10 = YA + 42 days (24 years old)
    • After 1950, use an 8 sided die and this table to set their ages in MCCC:
      • Roll a 1 = teen + 38 days (17 years old)
      • Roll a 2 = YA (18 years old)
      • Roll a 3 = YA + 7 days (19 years old)
      • Roll a 4 = YA + 14 days (20 years old)
      • Roll a 5 = YA + 21 days (21 years old)
      • Roll a 6 = YA + 28 days (22 years old)
      • Roll a 7 = YA + 35 days (23 years old)
      • Roll an 8 = YA + 42 days (24 years old)
      • Remember: The heir of any family does not move, they inherit the house!
  • 4. If they’re NOT in your main household, roll for how many “try for baby” times they are allowed. Use a 6 sided die. (If they’re in the main household, you decide how many kids they get.)
  • Note: If you’re marrying in sims, only your related sim makes these rolls. The only roll that applies to the townie, downloaded, or created non-bloodline sim is the money roll.
• Death rolls as an Elder:
  • Once your sim reaches the Elder life stage, at the beginning of every year (Sunday), roll a six sided die. The difficulty of the roll increases every time you roll. So, follow the below chart:
    • elder + 0 = difficulty 0 (no need to roll)
    • elder + 7 = difficulty 1 (must roll 2 or higher)
    • elder + 14 = difficulty 2 (must roll 3 or higher)
    • elder + 21 = difficulty 3 (must roll 4 or higher)
    • elder + 28 = difficulty 4 (must roll 5 or higher)
    • elder + 35 = (death by old age imminent, no need to roll)
  • (After 1940, this roll changes to a twenty sided die. See below:)
    • elder + 0 = difficulty 0 (no need to roll)
    • elder + 7 = difficulty 1 (must roll 2 or higher)
    • elder + 14 = difficulty 2 (must roll 3 or higher)
    • elder + 21 = difficulty 3 (must roll 4 or higher)
    • elder + 28 = difficulty 4 (must roll 5 or higher)
    • elder + 35 = difficulty 5 (must roll 6 or higher)
    • elder + 42 = difficulty 6 (must roll 7 or higher)
    • elder + 49 = difficulty 7 (must roll 8 or higher)
    • elder + 56 = difficulty 8 (must roll 9 or higher)
    • elder + 63 = difficulty 9 (must roll 10 or higher)
    • elder + 70 = difficulty 10 (must roll 11 or higher)
    • elder + 77 = difficulty 11 (must roll 12 or higher)
    • elder + 84 = difficulty 12 (must roll 13 or higher)
    • elder + 91 = difficulty 13 (must roll 14 or higher)
    • elder + 98 = difficulty 14 (must roll 15 or higher)
    • elder + 105 = difficulty 15 (must roll 16 or higher)
    • elder + 112 = difficulty 16 (must roll 17 or higher)
    • elder + 119 = difficulty 17 (must roll 18 or higher)
    • elder + 126 = difficulty 18 (must roll 19 or higher)
    • elder + 133 = difficulty 19 (must roll a 20)
    • elder + 140 = death by old age imminent, no roll.
  • Also, remember you can check exactly how old a sim is in MCCC – use the “sim commands” menu, “set age”, then “set days in age span” and it will tell you exactly how old your sim is.
