Fast Start
Go to the Hire section and scout for some operatives and defensive
units.
Go to Black Market and buy some drugs, alcohol to make your
guys happy. Also get weapons for your defensive units. Keep in
mind that defensive units without weapons won't do a thing. Also
keep an eye on your guys happiness. It's easy to keep them happy
but if you don't they will start leaving you. Start by making
some money by collecting money from your casinos, brothels, loan
sharks, gambling dens. When you get enough turns, go get some
more operatives and defensive units and repeat from step 1 When
you feel strong and rich enough.You can attack other mafiosos
in your range.Be careful, nobody will let you attack them without
revenge. This is the real Mafia World "an eye for an eye,
an arm, and a leg". Don't forget to protect part of your
money in the bank or you can loose it if somebody mugs you. Join
a family since you won't be able to survive by yourself. Otherwise
start your own. Finally, enjoy the game as much as you can and
watch your back :)
Rounds
Each round will last about 10 days to make it fair for newcomers,plus
it gives everyone a better chance to win. Once the round ends
everything starts over from scratch you can change your name family
name everything. You don't carry anything from one round to the
next, this mean no money guy's and any turns (you'll see more
about turns in the next section) Turns & Reserves
Turns
Turns are what you use to do everything. For example: to attack
someone, it requires 2 turns. Every 10 minutes you will receive
a certain amount of turns, depending on the rounds settings. Each
round, you also start off with a given amount of reserves. Reserves
are also basically turns, except reserves can be saved for later
in the round until you decide to use them. Networth
Awards
These are given to Mafiosos based on their networth ranking.
So here is how networth is calculated: Whores ($2,500) + Card
dealers ($2,000) + Bootleggers ($1,500) + Hustlers ($1,000) +
Punks ($500) + Hitmen ($1,000) + Thugs ($500) + Bodyguards ($500)
+ cash + bank
Families
ganglandmafia is a simulation of the the mafia underworld.
Just like the real mafia, you can join families - a group of people
who believe in the same thing, have the same ideas or just trust
each other. A family brings protection, it brings respect from
other members and it gives you trust in other members. Trust and
respect can save your life, but it can also get you killed. Families
have a size limit of 30 mafiosos / family.
Hire
One of the basics of organized crime is to be able to do things
your way and not end up in jail. Partly this is accomplished by
not doing any crimes yourself, instead paying others to do so.
In order to maintain your empire under control, you'll need different
types of personnel to perform all the different tasks and duties.In
order to get some staff in your crew you could scout for them.
To scout for crew members, just use your turns and look in the
place where you would find the kinda of guys you need.
Operatives
Operatives are the kind of units that would work in your businesses
and produce different kind of goods. The operatives that could
be part of your crew are: Card dealers - work in your casinos
and will determine how much cash your tables will roll out. Whores
- work in your brothel and will determine how much cash people
will pay for them. Bootleggers - work in your speakeasy and will
determine how much liquor your speakeasy will make. Hustlers -
work in your loan shark and will help to push people to collect
loan payments. Punks - work in your gambling den and will help
to push people to bet.
Defensive Units also called "DU"
Defensive units are units that would protect you and your operatives,
and would attack other mafiosos. The defensive units that could
be part of your crew are: Hitmen - strengths are their intelligence
at the time of performing an order and their good weapons skills.
They would kill and protect you. Thugs - are not as intelligent
and well mannered as gangsters. They will also be used for attacks
and to protect you. Bodyguards - are really easy to get and will
protect you well. They are not that good for attacks though.
Happiness
Having your crew happy is one of the most important things that
you would be looking after. If your operatives or defensive units
are not happy, they would start leaving you as soon as you ask
them to operate. Your operatives need some alcohol and coke to
be happy. They would also need to have defensive units to protect
them at work wich would make them happy as well. Your operatives
payroll is also a part of their happiness. You defensive units
need liquor and weed to be happy. They insist to have from 2 glocks
to 1 ak47 per defensive unit to be happy.
Black Market
In the black market you are able to get whatever you need for
you guys. Your able to buy narcotics, weapons, cars and planes.
You could sell cars and planes for 90% of their price. You could
also sell drugs at wholesale price Narcotics are mainly used to
make your guys happy. Your defensive units need liquor and weed
to be happy. Your operatives need liquor and coke to be happy
too. Try to get a big stock of them. Weapons are used for attacks
and are important for you guys happiness. You could get glocks,
shotguns, uzis and ak47. The more expensive the weapon, the more
the kills it makes. Cars are used to do a drive-by or to steal
other mafioso's cars. The chrysler 300 only takes 5 persons and
the S-Class limo takes 10 persons. Planes are used to travel to
other cities to attack other mafiosos. When you get your private
jet you don't need to pay for plane tickets. You should keep in
mind that your members that don't travel with you are lost. The
gulfstream jet can take up to 40 guys and the boeing 737-400 can
take up 300 people..
Produce
Productions are part of your illegal activities. So you could
use turns to produce coke, weed, alcohol and fake cash. Your thugs
are used to produce coke and weed in you drug lab Your bootleggers
are used to produce alcohol in your speakeasy Your punks are used
to create fake money
Collect
You could use some turns to collect some money from your businesses.
You own casinos, brothels, loan sharks and gambling dens. Your
Card dealers are used to run your casino tables Your whores are
used to work in your brothels Your hustlers are used to collect
loan payments in your loan sharks your punks are also used to
run your gambling dens
Cash and the bank Just like the real world, you have a bank account
and a pocket. The money you use anywhere is the cash you got on
you. However, keeping money in your pocket is risky. Another mafioso
can mug you and take whatever you have there. So, depositing a
part of it in the bank is a good idea. You are able to put 15%
of your money wich will cost you 15 turns each time. Later, if
you want to add more money in safebox, you would have to withdraw
all the money and put 15% of all the cash you got. You can withdraw
it when you need it at anytime for free. From your cash you can
also transfer deposited money to another mafioso. This can be
useful if you need to pay them for something, bribe them, or just
give a cut of your organized crime. If you want cash right away,
you could use the Mafia Pawn to exchange turns for cash.
Attacking
There are 5 different types of attacks. To attack a player, goto
the attack or goto find the mafioso you want to attack and click
on his name. When you are viewing his profile, click on attack!!!
If you see Out of Range, you may not attack this mafioso. You
can only attack players with 1/2 or up to 4 times your networth.
Mafia-Lords will automatically take your best crew members armed
with the best weapon you got them in order to have the most efficient
attacks ever. There is a limit to the amount of times you can
be hit. Within the first attacks, you can be hit 24 times and
then only once each hour. If you win the attacks, they do not
count against you and the revenge hits do not count either. HeadQuarter
Invasions - Most common attack done by mafiosos. Invade your enemies
headquarter and whack his defensive units! You could also steal
money if you killed enough of his defensives Cartel Invasions
- Most common attack done by mafiosos. Invade your enemies businesses
and whack his defensive units and operatives! You will be able
to kill some operatives if you killed enough of his defensives
Drive-by - This attack is sort of like HQ invasion, except the
enemy has a harder time killing your thugs in the drive-by. You
do a drive-by with as many people that get in your rides. Drug
Labs Sabotage - This attack is meant to steal drugs from your
opponent. Armory Attack - This attack is meant to steal guns from
your opponent. Jacking cars - In order to steal someones cars,
you will need to make sure enough of his defensive units are dead.
Bomb Cars-This attack will destroy some of his cars as well as
killing some of his defences
Revenge
The revenge is an option that would give you the chance to hit
back when somebody attacks you. Whenever somebody attacks you,
you will have a revenge on him for 24hrs even if he is out of
range. You could check your revenges in your mail box > revenges.
If somebody attacks you, you got a revenge on him but he will
get a revenge on you until you attack back.
Travel
Traveling is used for different purposes: running away from someone
that is trying to kill you, doing booze runs or traveling from
and to your hometown where your family is located, being in your
own city has pro's and Con's. A pro is that you're family offers
you more protection in your hometown, a con is that its more likely
for your enemies to find you!
MafiaLords
These are the admins of the game. They monitor your actions and
make sure everyone is playing fair. It's best to stay on the MafiaLords
good side. If you have any problems, found a bug in the game or
found a game abuser, let them know by leaving a message under
the ganglandmafia link.
