Flight Rising Legacy Challenge
My Founder! I'm starting my probably 9-10 month project with the Legacy Project! It sounded like so much fun that I went and dumped all of my treasure to start. My little girl here was just gorgeous, and I am debating about the route I want to take her. Shimmer / Iridescent for sure. Do I want to narrow down the tert? What breed? Oh my gosh, so many options! I can't wait to start.
Details below for my progress.

RULES
Posted by justjasper on Flight Rising!
This idea is inspired by the legacy challenges found for the game The Sims. In brief, it is a 10 generation breeding challenge where the aim is to go from an ungened starter to an attractive triple-gened dragon. There are rules and limitations in place to make that more of a challenge.
If you're on tumblr and would like to blog about it/see others doing it, tag your posts #flight rising legacy challenge.

ANSWERED QUESTIONS/MORE INFO
Can I use a stud for my heir?
No
Can I use an unhatched egg I already have/an unbred dragon I hatched from an egg?
Yes
First born?
The first dragon in the hatchling line up when they hatch.
For the 'advanced scoring' can I level dragons?
Yes, as long as they are eligible (heir, mate or non-heir dragons from the heir's clutch).
Can I make up extra rules/restrictions for myself?
Absolutely!
Do I keep score as I go or count up at the end?
It's easier to keep some kind of document with a score tally as you go.

START
- Buy an unhatched egg.
- Hatch it - this dragon is your founder
FIRST GENERATION
- Find a mate for this dragon
- The mate must be the same flight as your founder (doesn’t matter if not the same flight you’re in)
- You cannot pay more than 10,000t for this dragon
- This dragon must not have bred before
- When they’re ready, breed them
SECOND GENERATION
- When the eggs hatch, the first egg that hatches is the heir
- You can keep, exalt or sell the founder & mate and any other hatchlings; whatever you do, they are now excluded from the challenge
- You must now find a mate for your heir
- This mate must be the same flight as the founder was
- You cannot pay more than 20,000t for them
- When they’re ready, breed them
THIRD GENERATION
- The rules for each subsequent generation are the same
- The mate treasure cap rises by 10,000 each generation (e.g. 3rd gen = 30, 4th gen = 40k)
TENTH GENERATION
- The first hatchling to be born for this generation is your final dragon
- If you’ve been keeping score, tally your total and see how you did compared to others doing the challenge
RULES
- No scrolling: no breed change, no scatter, no gening, no removing genes, no maturity scrolls
- Renaming scrolls are an exception to this rule
- You cannot use dragons you’ve won, been given, or bred from another pair as a mate for one of your heirs, you must purchase them
- Points for hatchlings can only be counted for the clutch the heir was in - you can’t breed your first pair again and count their offspring as points towards your legacy score (though of course you can breed them as much as you want outside of the challenge)
SCORING - money
- 2 points for every 10k under budget you came when buying mates for your heirs (round prices up)
- Example: in your 5th generation with a limit of 50k you only spent 18k - round up to 20k, leaving you 30k under budget = 6 points
- Advanced optional scoring: 2 points for every 10k made from selling/exalting legacy dragons (old founder/mates or non-heir hatchlings)
SCORING - hatchlings
- 1 point for a plentiful breed (tundra, guardian, mirror, fae)
- 2 points for commons (pearlcatcher, ridgeback, snapper, spiral)
- 3 points for uncommons (skydancer)
- 4 points for limited (imperial)
- 5 points for rare (wildclaw, coatl)
- 1 point if 5 egg nest
- 3 point per treasure gene
- 5 points per gem gene (circuit, iridescent, shimmer)
- 3 points for double colours (xxy, xyx, yxx)
- 5 points for triple colours (xxx)
- Heir multiplier: your heir scores double
- Example: a basic/seraph (3)/basic snapper (2) would score 5 - doubled to 10 if it was your heir dragon
VARIANTS
- You can set yourself extra goals: e.g. to get a xxy or a triple in 10 generations, to get a specific colour or colour combo in 10 generations
- You can play without scoring if you like
- Uglacy variant: your goal is to breed a supremely ‘ugly’ dragon in 10 generations
- Breed restricted variant: all the dragons you use are the same breed
EXTRA/IDEAS
- You can theme your legacy for extra fun, e.g. a naming scheme
- Perhaps have a piece of apparel that gets passed from heir to heir
- If you’re into RPing, get to it!
