The Sims 4 Military Career
Strangerville Game Pack: Rewards for Officers and Covert Operators
These are the Medals that Sims in the Military receive, regardless of rank, with display case.
The Military Career is included with The Sims 4 StrangerVille Game Pack. The new Career features two branches, Officer and Covert Operator which differ quite a bit. One will lead you toward spying on your neighborhood, while the other charges you with getting other recruits into shape. Here's a guide to the new career, its requirements and the rewards you can expect with each promotion. Each one comes with a medal, and there's a display case for storage which can be seen above.
How to: Military Career Cheats Press Control + Shift + C then type testingcheats on and press enter. You can now get promotions with careers.promote military - you can also see all Career Cheats or visit a full list of Cheats in The Sims 4.
Military Sims can Spar and Order other Military around.
Sims in the Military can use the Spar interaction, which lets them fight in a friendly way with another Sim. This raises fitness and builds relationship between the participants. They also gradually gain access to the 'Order Around' menu which can be used on other Military Sims. You may instruct them to spar one another, among other activities.
Learn about THe Sims 4's Military career, new in the StrangerVille Game Pack. Includes information on both the OFficer and Covert Operator branches and where the jobs rank in pay overall.

Want to be a Covert Operator or Officer? The Military Career is available for all owners of The Sims 4 StrangerVille Game Pack.
Take a job in the Military by using your phone or the careers panel (hotkey 'J' on PC) if you don't have one already. Early on, your Sim is very much focused on keeping fit and not much else. As a new recruit you'll want to keep energized during work hours to keep the fitness skill levels coming. Workout equipment for the home can help a lot with saving time, though you may at times need to get out in the world and go on a jog.
Military is like Gardener from Seasons in that it allows you to choose each day whether you'll attend work or work from home. If you choose work from home, you'll get an assignment which you're expected to complete during work hours. Gains toward promotion are not given until the next day, so do not worry if you don't see your Sim making progress. This allows for a lot of freedom while bringing in money. I personally prefer going in when I'm trying hard due to being able to use work hard and going in a positive mood,
Unfortunately when it comes to choosing between these, the differences are there but not in the way we might like. They make the same amount per rank, gain the same bonuses except for the minor differences you see in pictures, and work the same number of hours (8). The vast difference is one is an early morning/daytime job (Officer) and one is a late night job (Covert Operator). Because of this it should be fairly easy for you to choose, but hinders the replayability of the two branches.
Covert Operator Branch
Uniform and rewards for the Covert Operator Career. Shown second is the Man in Black uniform for reaching Rank 10 in Covert Operator
Covert Operators will listen in on other Sims, using the Listening Device. This may mean planting bugs on them, as potentially used at one point during the StrangerVille Mystery, only an absolute requirement of the job in this case. They may also need to find evidence and research strange phenomena, while keeping the secrets of the military. The level 10 activity, 'Plan 10 Moves Ahead' means to simply play chess for 2 hours. I'm not sure why it doesn't change the name for agents or add an additional activity to the chessboard. It also lacks a tooltip, so hopefully this helps.

I have much more to come, since you can actually write a few guides about this pack!
Calling all Blender Users
Blender has been incredibly useful in video production, so I made my own Physics and Simulation Improvement Addon that lumps a ton of unique tools into one compact interface.
Sims 4 Snowy Escape
The Sims 4 Snowy Escape launches November 13, 2020 and my coverage has started. Until I get my review ready, you can learn about the following:
There is a new platform tool in The Sims 4. There's also a new Sentiments system, but it'll take some time to create a guide to that. Players can also use rental lots in any world now by changing lot types of builds in manage worlds.
Best Mods in Sims 4
I've created a massive List of The Best Mods in The Sims 4 that should be very helpful to new players and those who have not yet explored modding and how much it can do for your gameplay.
Readers who use adblock or those who'd like to thank me for my efforts can now pledge $1/$5 monthly via Patreon. This helps a lot with server costs and provides some stability for my business.
I now have a guide page to Tiny Living Stuff where you can learn about Murphy Beds, the new death, as well as the lot bonuses you'll receive if you manage to keep the size of your lot down with this new pack's Tiny Home Lot Type.
Let's Play Playlist
New I now have a guide to Making Super Sims in The Sims 4. Look for a text version within the next 72h. It won't have THAT much more info but it will help out as a checklist.
This was inspired by a series, "Let's Play a Super Sim" in which I start at toddler and gradually take on the major bonuses. Here's a link to each part for people who are interested. You can also see the Let's Play as a Playlist on Youtube.
The Sims 4 Discover University has been announced for November 15 for PC/Mac and December 17 for Xbox and Playstation 4 consoles. Click to learn more about the pack, see my summary of the livestream or read our FAQs below.
