Concept idea for a London-based RPG, inspired by Roadmen and the recent “Mafia City” adverts.
Gear & Stats
I get a lot of people asking about how to improve their battle stats. When you attack someone the report that comes from the attack shows the stats. Each stat is relative to gear you have or investments you have made. Some stats are buffed by a vigilante.. but mostly they are investments or gear.
Gear is made by exchanging GEMS. This is done inside the Pawnbroker Building. This is a building you locate early in the development of the mansion, typically placed in the south outside the wall or near the vault / helicopter of the mansion. No right or wrong to where you place the building, just preference.
GEMS .... there are many ways to get gems and a few “tricks” as well ... A lot of information to cover so hopefully this does not get boring. The COLOR of the gems are VERY IMPORTANT. The order of colors are ....
WHITE - GREEN - BLUE - PURPLE - ORANGE - GOLD
1. Generally Gems are made in the Lapidary Complex which is located on the far east of the mansion, outside the wall. Here you can queue gems to be made and also look inside your own safe to see what you own.
2. Gems also come from participating in events, kick backs, rewards, etc... what I could consider “game play”.
3. Tip - Gems ALSO can be purchased in the plantation. This may not “sound” like a tip ... but for 5,500 points you can purchase (20) Common Gem Boxes. Below I will discuss the time to make gems ... and you will see why purchasing these to “push” gear makes a lot of sense. Typically you will get 3-4 Level 2 gems and the rest Level 1 ... if you get more Level 2 than 3 or 4 you are lucky!
4. Making Common vs. Advanced Gems - The SECOND babe you unlock in the game is an oriental woman named Mai Hanano. It’s important to get her favor increased to 300 points AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Once you reach 300 points you unlock the Advanced Gem Making Skill. This allows you to make straight GREEN gems in the Lapidary ... saving you from having to go back to it ALL the time to keep gems cooking.
5. One of the key investments you can make is Speedy Gem Making... This is found inside the Investment Center under Equipment. Maxing out the investment will improve the time to make a single gem by 50% !!!!!
6. Colors and Synthesizing Gems - in the best case you are making GREEN color gems ... every (4) GREEN gems = (1) Blue Gem, (4) Blue Gems = (1) Purple Gem... and so on. You can upgrade the gems by clicking on your safe icon and you will notice an upward ARROW on the gems. This means they can be put together to make the next color. Now I personally am a numbers person ... so lets do some simple math here ...
(with Speedy Gem Making 100% invested) ....
it takes 80 minutes to make (1) WHITE GEM ... or 320 Minutes to make (1) GREEN GEM. There is no time savings making GREEN gems ... it is simply an advantage to have to queue less!
Furthering the above ... and considering we are making just GREEN gems ... it will take 1,280 minutes (21.3 hours) to make (1) BLUE gem ... 5,120 minutes (85.33 hours or 3.55 days) to make (1) PURPLE gem .... 20,480 minutes (341.33 hours or 14.2 days) to make (1) ORANGE gem .... and finally 81,920 minutes (1,365.33 hours or 56.88 days) to make (1) GOLD gem.
NOW ... I mentioned above purchasing the gem boxes from the plantation and the above is why .... you can generate 5,500 points (if you are VIP 8 and have (4) pieces of land) in approx 11 hours. EVEN IF YOU ONLY GOT 20 LEVEL ONE GEMS .... that is worth 26.66 HOURS of making gems in the lapidary! Commonly you get 3-4 Level (2) Gems and remaining are Level 1 ... which is equal to approximately 2,560 minutes of gem making time ... or 42.66 hours worth of lapidary time!!!!
(so now you are probably banging your head on a table wondering why the hell didn't I realize this one before! hahahaha)
SO WHO CARES ABOUT GEMS ANYWAY .... !?!?!?! ... Well they are important to building the main topic here ... GEAR.
Inside the mansion is the PAWNBROKER which I mentioned above; here you can exchange those gems for different pieces of gear. Each gear has it’s own benefits ... so choose carefully.
I would recommend you try and build all PURPLE gear to start as it is the most easily obtained ... ORANGE and GOLD gear takes a VERY LONG TIME.
Getting decent level gear will increase your stats quickly ... improving both attack skills and other buffs like hospital capacity, healing speeds, investment speeds, cash production, etc....
A couple of things about gear to note
1. You can exchange UP A LEVEL to any kind of other gear ... so a level 5 knife can become a level 10 gun for example. The TYPE does not matter, only that you have the proper level below to exchange up.
2. DO NOT EVER attempt to exchange gear if your CHANCE is below 80% ... frankly doing anything less than 100% is a huge risk!
3. You can alter WHAT GEMS are being used by clicking on them ... for example if you have an ORANGE diamond .. the game will grab that diamond when you exchange a piece of gear that requires diamond to be used ... clicking on it, you can choose ANY color you want to use. This is VERY IMPORTANT to pay attention ... once you start making ORANGE or GOLD gems you do not want to screw up and throw one away!!!!
4. You CAN upgrade from one color gear to another color gear .... to do this you need to synthesize the gear. A level 30 BLUE gun for example will need (3) more level 30 pieces of BLUE gear to make (1) level 30 purple gear. The TYPE of gear you have will not change ... only the color and abilities.
5. GEAR can be DISMANTLED ... HOWEVER ... there is no guarentee what gems you will get back ... only what level they will be. So make and dismantle gear at your own risk
STATS ALSO COME FROM INVESTMENTS !!!!!!
Inside the INVESTMENT center the PRIMARY place to invest and increase stats is CREW CAPABILITIES. Here you can increase stats for each troop type along with increasing speed and adding marches. There are A LOT of investments to get through here ... I cannot recommend enough to invest heavily into any BULKER defense or health skills.
Mafia City is a defensive game ... maybe the old saying “The best offense is a good defense” really applies here. Defensive skills and troops are the backbone to battle .. and also why the top tier Bulker troops is a defense troop.
There are several other areas in the investment center which will increase stats, troop training times, etc... a few of these are under Equipment. There are even more at the bottom of the investment center which cannot be entered until your mansion has reached Level 31 .. or Elite 1.
Hope this helps to explain some of the basics behind this ... there is a lot more when SETS get involved ... but this is way too many words as it is.
Best of luck and happy gaming !

MAFIA CITY TROOP STATS, RANGES & NOTES
Evening Power Tactics, Attacking Street Forces & Mercenaries
Once you have a decent amount of troops you can begin hitting several street forces or mercenaries at the same time. The easiest way to handle this is using the SLIDER or PERCENTAGE at the top right of the attack window.
Since everyone has different investments, vigilantes, gear and troops there is a bit of a learning curve with WHAT troops / power you need for what level street force or mercenary. Unfortunately the easiest way to learn that for your own game is to TRY IT ... if you lose a battle not a big deal.
Prioritize Button (WHY’s that important?)
There are (4) options with this button on the bottom left of the attack window.
LEVEL - This puts your troops in “order” .. highest levels at the top and lowest levels at the bottom.
LOAD - This organizes the troops based on load they can carry. The game defaults to this when you are gathering from a tile for example
SPEED - Obviously ... fastest troops at the top and slowest at the bottom. This comes in REALLY handy with hitting street ops. See below
CREW - The games “preset” best attack strategy (which is total crap btw for hitting a players base) for attacking ... works OK for street forces or tile hitting but advanced battle mechanics will always be better.
The percentage or slider ... and why it’s important
Utilizing the slider OR typing in a percentage is important and very useful for a few things ... for example if the clan is running multiple raids, lets say (2) for example and you want to give your “best” to both raids .... simply change the PRIORITIZE to be by CREW ... the first attack you send “50%” ... then join second raid and choose “100%”.
This will send 50% of your best organized CREW to each of the raids.
This can be a LITTLE confusing ... the slider is sending 50% of the best troops you have... not 50% of ALL of your troops.. it is sending the “best” 50% of your march size!
Another good example is when you want to hit A LOT of street forces. When you have decent level troops (T7 and above) you can run multiple marches (3, 4 or 5 at a time) and do this little routine ...
click on a street force, choose Go To
click on prioritize, choose speed
click on Quick Select so it CLEARS ALL TROOPS
now slide the Fastest troop (the one at the top) over until you see “odds are in our favor” above the slider. note: sometimes this will take several different levels of troops! if your troops are strong enough and the street force is low enough, you can hit a bunch just grabbing the fastest troop you have available
Hitting “Higher Level” Street Forces
Following the above example you simply select to prioritize by CREW. The game will automatically tell you if you will win or lose the attack!
It’s VERY important you learn the POWER that’s required ... as you get more and more accustomed to using this technique you can really dial into what you are hitting and get more marches out, gaining more experience and points.
Mercenaries with Evening Power tactics
I would not suggest doing the above on mercenaries until you get some reasonable troops T7 and above preferably. With my troops, gear, etc.. it takes approx 200,000 power to kill a LEVEL 1 mercenary... 300,000 for level 2 and up to 540,000 for a level 3 mercenary in one hit.
Yes .. we can hit them several times ... but WHY ... you are using 10 energy per hit so you want to kill them in ONE HIT.
There is a lot more to write specifically about “Mercs” ... but the basics are try to kill them in a single hit and remember they have different amounts of strength. The mercenaries strength is by their type ... White Shark being the weakest.. The Ghost 2nd strongest, Venom third and Shredder being the strongest.
Level 1 Ghost can easily be dropped with 200k power while a level 3 Shredder can need more than 500,000 power to kill in one hit.
More to come later on Mercenaries and how to level quickly using them.
Micro Cluster Farming
One of the biggest issues in the game is gathering enough resources to grow the mansion at any steady rate. This especially becomes an issue when you have reached m20 and above, m24 and up you need several farms to grow at any pace. The principal here is utilizing teamwork and some patience to grow a GROUP of people together. Together .. a small group can grow very quickly.
What you need to have ....
- Minimum of (5) Players each with (1) farm minimum, preferably more
- Farms should have (3) marches, (4) is better... (5) marches obviously the best case but that takes m20, not the average farm account there.
- Players need to work as a team and agree on a time of the day where EVERYONE can be online at the same time. The time does not matter, just needs to be a time everyone can agree to
- Farm bases SHOULD be all in the same (farm) clan together and near an operating/built CLAN TOWER. Clan Tower will increase both resource production on the base and gathering speeds.
The Math & The Principal
So lets make this simple and say you have a farm with 3 marches of troops, you send those marches out 3 times per day. If you are gathering CARGO from level 6 tiles each march will gather 288,000 cargo per trip. That makes (1) round of 3 marches = 864,000 cargo. That farm does (3) gatherings per day making that total = 2,592,000 cargo in one day.
Simple right? Now lets pretend we have (5) farms, all of them gather the same amount as above. Now the total for (1) day is 2,592,000 x 5 ... or 12,960,000 cargo per day.
So this seems elementary but what happens is some farms are gathering level 7 tiles, some gathering level 6. Some farms have 3, 4 or 5 marches.
We have tested this using (18) mansions (some were farms, some main bases) and our total yield for (1) day of farming was 71.8m cargo, 12.2m cash, 4m arms, 54k metal.
The trick is always COMMUNICATE. We pick (2) types of resources based on the players needs ... cargo and arms seems to be most popular for example. Everyone for (1) day will gather all the cargo and arms they can and at the set time ... everyone clears all troops out and the (1) player takes their turn hitting all the bases.
Another CORE PRINCIPAL HERE is that ANY BASE can be a farm .... as long as you can move ALL THE TROOPS OUT! This means even the MAIN bases can participate in the farm cluster, you will only need to drop from the clan to hit other bases. As long as you stay in the group chat this is not a problem and you can move in/out of the clan as needed.
Forming the “Micro Cluster Hive”
I would recommend strongly getting the farms into the same alliance, best case is a farm clan. Put ALL bases that are part of the “Micro Cluster” right next to one another. Big mansions can easily port in and out of the area when it is their turn to clear the bases.
Farms in ONE farm clan together, inside a clan towers boost lines
Group all bases in one little area. If people do not have ADVANCED teleport you can simply MAKE AN ALLIANCE with someones base, have the member who wants to teleport join that alliance .. and utilize a CLAN teleport to land next to them... then rejoin the main and farm alliances. Last resort ... use 2,000 gold to advance teleport.
KEEP SOMEONE with a large main base on OVER WATCH DUTY. This means keeping the cluster protected ... there is always a chance it can get hit but loss is only a days worth of resources maximum ... and keeping a big m26 or e3 base sitting there is usually a good way to keep the unwanted people away.
The Do’s and Do Not’s
Several things have to happen to MAKE THIS WORK .... abide by these rules and this works .... break them and the system fails....
DO NOT build troops, upgrade buildings, do investments or anything that will consume gathered resources UNTIL your mansion is CLEAR from the days gathering. Once your base has been hit, build troops or do whatever you need to but absolutely not until then. The reason is every time you do something it consumes the “unprotected” or “gathered” resources first ... then it uses your “safe” resources. If you gather a ton and then build, all the resources you just gathered will be gone ... and you will contribute nothing for that time to the resource group.
DO NOT hit someones farm WITHOUT SPYING FIRST. Even if they say “all clear” ... do your self and them a favor and double check. Trust me it’s worth the few seconds of time to avoid losses, healing and lost resources.
DO NOT hit farms without the approval of people and them saying “all clear” or “my base is ready”
DO ... use Shakedown skill every 12 hours
DO ... use gathering boosts as much as possible
DO ... use Getaway Drivers skill when possible
DO CLEAR TILES. DO NOT LEAVE UNFINISHED TILES!
Clearing Troops
This is probably a silly part to include .. but thought it worth noting. When you are ready to have your farm cleared, the easiest way is to use the SLIDER and PERCENTAGE box at the top right of the troop formation window.
Side Note : This is also a great way to hit street ops or mercs ... utilize the percentage to send all troops and achieve the required power you need based on the force type. You can hit more at a time doing it this way.... cover this in another post later.
If you have 3 marches you type in “33%″ and hit send, “50%” and hit send .. and then “100%” and hit send.
If you have 4 marches you type in “25%”, “33%”, “50%” and “100%”
If you have 5 marches you type in “20%”, “25%”, “33%”, “50%” and “100%”
