I have seen a bunch of legacy challenges recently and while I love the ideas in them many seen to require packs and/or have an extreme number of things to do that can be overwhelming for newer players. So I made a base game legacy - these do exist already. I believe this should be doable for newer players and anything that might lead to confusion can be easily googled for guidance.
