Description
PLAYTESTING VERSION - Art and Graphic Design are not final

You are famous - one of the most well-known names of the early 19th Century. That's not enough for you, though. You want to leave a legacy, with your name living far into the future. Make strategic relationships, well-timed investments, and marvelous heirlooms to leave a lasting mark. Most importantly, identify the ideal successors to carry your reputation and fame across multiple centuries. This strategic, action-selection, economic game challenges you to navigate events of the past, present, and future to cement your legacy. What kind of legacy will you create? How will YOU be remembered?

Legacies is unique in its integration of primary mechanisms including: multi-use cards, market manipulation, area control/worker placement, variable round-ends, variable player powers, and variable scoring. Many paths exist to build your fame, but it would be foolish to focus only on your own heirlooms and industries as that path will likely benefit your opponents more than it will benefit you.

The player cards and entire board evolve throughout the game highlighting inflation, and more importantly, showcasing the visual progression from the 19th century into the 20th and eventually the 21st century creating an effect that carries the player through a journey that truly feels as if it spans 300 years in just a couple of hours of game-play.

Thanks Xekura! The rules and mechanics should be the same. There were a couple of cards that changed from when we published this to the printing of the game, but otherwise it's comparable.

Love the game, is there any change to rule and mechanic from official version?
i don't mind lack of art / graphic

@Bobby Dodge Thanks for the feedback and the question. The solo cards shuffle when the deck is empty as opposed to at the end of the generation which is why those make their way to the discard pile. If you have both a Rising Star and a Nemesis, you'll see all of the cards once in the century (2 generations) and some of the cards twice. I hope that helps! Thanks. :-)

First let me say, thank you for the mod and scripting work. Very smooth, helps jump right into gameplay!

Solo mod question. When placing cards into the bots cards played area. If it is the 2nd card or more, it automatically copies the card and places the copy in the discard. Why?

As played cards reset every generation. And the rising star only plays a maximum of 5 cards. The only time you would have to shuffle, would be if the nemesis plays a ton of cards. Even then you could take the played cards from the rising star, shuffle those, and continue play until generation end.

@kurt622 Could you give it another try? I just launched it and everything loaded. I do know some friends of mine were running into intermittent Steam and TTS issues yesterday.

Player boards and main board don't load.

Great mod! Played on Friday. Planning on playing again next week Friday. One issue, the gemstone objects are not loading. It errors at the start of the game.

@ConteGoblin asking how to use pass the turn in a hot-seat game. This is universal for Tabletop Simulator, not specifically our game, but I can still help you out:

If you are using TTS's built in hot-seat setup, then all you have to do is click the button at the top of your screen. It both displays who's turn it currently is, and acts as a next player button.

Otherwise, you can always change seats by clicking your name in the upper-right corner of the screen and choosing "Change Color".

How do you complete the character selection in a hot-seat game? Can't find a way to pass the turn to the next player

@dajjbomb Sorry, I have not been able to duplicate your error. They always load for me and anyone else I've talked to.

@tigerhalsey The hard reset for every mod on Tabletop Simulator, is to simply reload the mod. Do you have need of only resetting part of the mod, or did I misunderstand your question?
